⟨3⟩ padasaṁghāḍāni patiṭhapita ⬦ pādasa(ṁ)ghāḍā nipatiṭhapito Sircare • The expected orthography is here pādasaṁghāḍāni, but note that in one of the inscribed buddhapādas from Phanigiri (EIAD 109), the orthography is also padasa(ṁ)ghaḍa (read by Hinüber2013c as pādasaghāḍa). Note furthermore the syntactic agreement between the substantive, in nom. pl. nt. (in function of dual), and the past participle patiṭhapita, in an uninflected nom. sg.

Translation

Success! In the monastery of the Theriya teachers, proponents of analytical distinctions, who brought the faith to Kashmir, Gandhāra, the [country of the] Yavanas, Vanavāsa, and the island of Tambapaṇṇi, residents of the Great Monastery, who are experts at determining the meaning and letter of the ninefold division of scriptures, who hold the line of transmission of the lineage of the noble ones, this pair of footprints has been established, for the good and well-being of all beings.
