(L. 5.) In the 18th year of (the reign of) king Madiraikoṇḍa Parakēsarivarman, the land which is not included in the uṭkuṟai of this village, (which lay) to the west of (the path called) Vīraśrī-Kāmugavadi, to the north of (the channel called) Ādichcha-vāykkāl and . . . . fourth and fifth kaṇṇāṟu from the eastern side of . . . was made tax-free and granted as a dēvadāna. . . .

(L. 10.) The western half of the second kaṇṇāṟu from the east and the ground included in the third, fourth and the fifth kaṇṇāṟu, (lying) to the west of this same path (vadi), to the north of the channel (called) Pālaivāy, to the east of the field (śērvai ?) facing (the path called) Kōdaṇḍarāma-vadi on (its) northern side and to the south of the channel from the river.

(L. 12.) One mā of land made tax-free and granted for burning two perpetual lamps day and night as long as the moon and the sun (endure), by Kumaraṉ Śōḻappēraiyaṉ the headman of Muḷarikuḍi, after having purchased (it) from Akkiśarma-Kramavittaṉ of Muḍapuram. (This was) to the west of the western road passing from (this) village facing northwards, (and) to the north of (the channel called) Uttamaśīli-vāykkāl and formed the northern side of the first śadiram from the south.

(L. 17.) In the 20th year (of the reign), Kamuduvaṉ Nīlanārāyaṇaṉ of Tirumiḻalai purchased the following land, made (it) tax-free and granted (it) for the sacred midday offerings:—One mā (of land) to the west of the four mā on the northern side of the second śadiram which lay . . . . path running westwards from the village and to the south of (the channel called) Uttamaśīli-vāykkāl in . . . . kaṇṇāṟu.

(L. 21.) Also two mā and odd (chinnam) of land, was sold, made tax-free and given (for worship) as archanā-bhōga. (The land was) to the west of this same path and to the south of this same channel, forming the southern portion of the first śadiram in the second kaṇṇāṟu.

(L. 24.) Also one and a half mā and odd of land, sold, made tax-free and given (for festivals) as tiruviḻāppuram—(it being the balance left) after deducting one kāṇi and odd of (land occupied by) a tank on the north-western side, from the two mā (of land) adjoining the one mā which is (also) excluded and lies on the northern side of the first śadiram to the south of (the channel called) Uttamaśīli-vāykkāl, in the first kaṇṇāṟu to the west of the western road which passes northwards from (this) village.

(L. 28.) To the east of (the pathway) Mātiruvadi . . . . . . . . . . PālaiPerhaps pālaivāy niroṭukāl was meant as in line 10. —
