Gupte's original reading was yad atra puṇyaṁ pratimāṁ kārayitvā mayā bhr̥tam. #Agrawal_1940:60 corrects to yad asti ... mamāstu; he does not read "tat".

Bhandarkar prints tat at the end of the previous half-verse as clear, and all of this half-verse as supplied. In fact, I see nothing resembling the final t of tat, unless it's a subscript letter _below_ the mā of mātā. tanmātā is also possible, though Agrawala prints mātā as clear (and stu tat at the end of the prev half-verse as unclear). See also note on the same locus in B.
