In l1 rmo is executed with regular r and subscript ma, and rja is likewise.

--><!--

In l1 Fleet reads yaśā as clear and emends to yaśo.

--><!--

In l1 Fleet emends to bhikṣuṇyā jayabhaṭṭāyāḥ, which is plausible, but I'm not really certain about the reading. The original stone Fleet worked with may be clearer, but on the rubbing, rja is not very convincing; just possibly, the reading could be śākya-bhikṣuṇy-akṣayabhaṭṭāyār. This leaves us with just one non-standard ending instead of two.

--><!--

The punctuation mark before the date is a single dash.

--><!--

For the date, I bow to Fleet's reading of 230, but Dowson reads it as 280, and the second numeral does look much more like 80 than 30 to me. See also next comment on the mark after the second numeral.

--><!--

After the date, Fleet reads a punctuation mark, while Dowson describes it as a faint mark which could be the remains of the numeral 1. From what I can see on the facsimile, it does not resemble either the dash before the date or a numeral 1. It could perhaps be the (p-like) top of a numeral 4, with the (k-like) bottom part lost. I could also imagine a numeral 8 or 9.
