## Summary

This is slightly damaged. It seems to record a gift of 90 sheep for a
perpetual lamp in the temple of Mahādēva at Tirumaṟaikkāḍu, a dēvadāna
in Umbaḷa-nāḍu, by a lady, Naṅgai [Pa]ravvaiyār, a ‘pārikai’ in the Big
Temple (or palace ?) at Tiruvārūr and another individual, probably an
officer of the king (Tiru-ülagaperumāṉār).
