Comments below by Csaba Kiss and Dániel Balogh (BD) are offered "as is" and do not represent a thoroughly researched or considered opinion.

--><p><pb n="1v"/><!--

BD: Better to keep the pb tag inside the p element. Only put pb outside p/ab/lg when there is marginal text that needs to be handled with textpart divs.

brāhmaṇottarān is the Ed.'s reading. The printed text reads

brāhmam-ettarān [? scan blurred]

--><!--

BD: I think Sircar wanted to print brāhmanettarān (but ended up with me), which seems to be the original reading; emend ne to ṇo.

L4. FN "The Rithapur inscription [IN01001] has also this reading. The reading intended seems to be yathāyaṁ." ?

-->kautsa-sagotrāya durgg<choice><sic>a</sic><corr>ā</corr></choice>ryyāya

ravirāryyāya ravidattāryyāya<!--

L4. FN: "After this name [ravidattāryya], the upper part of a letter, which may be an ill-formed cha [i.e. ca] is visible. Below this and the preceding letter, there are traces of three akṣaras which look like māttarā. Whether this is meant for a correction in the line or for the insertion of a new name in the list of the donees cannot be satisfactorily determined."

BD: Pls. quote Sircar's fn on ravirāryyāya. The "rā" looks very strange, seems to be a correction from something with ū, perhaps pū.

Not crystal clear if the FN here ("Read vaset [2*] iti.") means that it is an emendation or a re-evaluation of the facsimile.

BD: Means emendation. For some reason "read x" is standard usage for emendation.

BD: open a p tag here and close it at the end.

FN: "The figure has been so formed as to look like the letter re."

-->mārggaśīrṣa-mās<choice><sic>a</sic><corr>i</corr></choice><!--

Not crystal clear if the FN here ("Read māsi.") means that it is an emendation or a re-evaluation of the facsimile.

--><!--

BD: Means emendation, as above. I find the emendation overzealous though; the intent was, I'm pretty sure, not the locative of the rare word mās, but a form of the much more common word māsa. Either meant to be in compound, but without sandhi, or meant to be locative, with non standard sandhi.

-->amāvāsyāM<!--

L13 FN after amāvasyāM: "The the first two akṣaras of the following word have cursive form."

--><!--

BD: The comment should include precise location info in such cases.

FN: "Read mukh-ājñaptena." The Ed. adds: "The form ājñaptena is also correct" see vol. XXVII p.44 n.6

--><!--

BD: Sircar prints °ādhikr̥tena, but the plate clearly has °ādhikr̥ta. I've corrected the text.

--><!--

BD: Add <g type="closer" /> instead of the double daṇḍa at the end. (See footnote 6.)
