The text follows the edition of H. Krishna Sastri in 2158 in absence of a picture. Following the entry in A. R. No. 471 of 1893 Krishna Sastri edited the text which was written on two faces on a stone slab as one entry with continuous line numbering although the two faces evidently display two distinct inscriptions. They are given here as 58a and 58b respectively. The line numbering was adapted to this situation wherefore line 5 in 2158 corresponds to line 1 in this edition. Krishna Sastri suggests the tentative reading kaliviṣṇu in line 5.

The text was edited together with a second inscription on the same stone by H. Krishna Sastri in 2158 without a picture. The text was re-edited by K. M. Sastri (34597) on basis of SII with some errors and without translation.
