Bhandarkar does not supply the lost portions. I follow Agrawala in reconstructing them. Bhandarkar notes that there is room for two characters after ghaṭo at the end of the legible part of line 1, but Agrawala puts only tka here, and I agree that it's more likely to be just one character. Throughout the inscription, the positions of line breaks seem to be pretty arbitrary choices by editors based on how they count flyspeck characters. This should be reconsidered before publication.

Here Agrawala puts svayañ cāpratirathaḥ in the next line. I can't read the photograph, but by the number of characters I judge Bhandarkar's line break to be better.

Here Agrawala restores [#mahādevyāṁ śrī]-(?mahī)devyām utpannaḥ and notes that earlier scholars have suggested mahādevyām (apparently as the name). I follow Bhandarkar with candradevī.
