## Summary

The introduction is Tirumagaḷ pōla etc. The inscription is left
incomplete. It mentions an order of Maṟavaṉ Narasiṁhapanmaṉ alias
Rājarāja-Vāṇakōvaraiyar to his subordinates to find out a land in the
brahmadēya Koṭṭagam on the northern bank in his nāḍu (i.e., under his
jurisdiction) which would suffice to yield paddy at a kuṟuṇi and 4 nāḻi
per day as required for offerings to the god during the three services
in the temple of Tāṉtōṉṟi-Āḷvār. A panegyric of this chief is given in
Sanskrit after the regnal year of the king, calling him an “ornament of
Mahābali-kula and “Parivipuraparamēśvara”.
