⟨2⟩ -mulasa ⬦ -mūlasa Vogel 1931–1932.
⟨4⟩ mahātalavarasa vasiṭhī- ⬦ mahātalavaravasiṭhī- Vogel 1931–1932. — ⟨4⟩ pūk(ī)yānaṁ ⬦ pūkiyānaṁ Vogel 1931–1932.
⟨5⟩ -sirisa ⬦ -sirīsa Vogel 1931–1932 • The appearance of a long ī on the estampage used by Vogel was probably due to the crack in the stone.
⟨6⟩ [A]pano ⬦ [A]paṇo Vogel 1931–1932.
⟨7⟩ [sir](i)vira- ⬦ [siri]vira- Vogel 1931–1932. — ⟨7⟩ -vadhanīke ⬦ -vadhanike Vogel 1931–1932 • Constraint of space above the nī may have caused the engraver to choose a peculiar moon-shape form for his ī. There is another case of such an ad hoc shape in ni in l. 8.
⟨8⟩ [3+] ⬦ [Apaṇo] Vogel 1931–1932 • There is no objective reason for favoring Vogel’s restitution of this particular form/spelling of the personal pronoun here, since other instances in the corpus could be invoked to support restoring Atano or Apano.
⟨9⟩ [.]i • This line is not recorded by Vogel 1931–1932. In the light of parallel passages for the formula -nivāṇathanāya Imaṁ selakhaṁbhaṁ patiṭhapitaṁ ti, we expect the isolated vowel i here to have been part of the word patiṭhapitaṁ.
Translation
Cāntisirī — uterine sister of Great King Siri-Cāntamūla, sacrificer of the Aśvamedha, giver of many times tens of millions of (pieces of) gold; wife of the Great Talavara Vāsiṭṭhīputta Kandasiri of the Pūkīyas, Great-Talavara-wife — in order to increase the lifespan and leading to victory after victory of her son-in-law, King Māṭharīputta Siri-Vīrapurisadatta of the Ikṣvākus ... and (for the sake of her own) well-being and happiness in both worlds and nirvāṇa ...
