The primary source for this edition is #Kolte_1972 (K). Shrimali (Shri) differs in some points, possibly being a reprint of Kolte's edition in VSMA (1971). I only refer to Shri where that edition differs from K. Corrections from #Shastri_1995 are referred to as S.
--><!--
I should note that the entire plate is extremely neatly written and contains much fewer errors than most Vākāṭaka plates.

L1. dr̥ṣṭam seems to be a regular part of l1, not a separate block.
--><!--
L1. Halanta characters (in l1 and elsewhere unless otherwise noted) are small but quite elaborate subscript characters without a prominent boxhead and with a definite line above.

L4. K reads samrāṭ, but I prefer to read ḍ. In addition to the phonological unlikeliness of a ṭv ligature, the upper grapheme has a definite stem. Compare ṭa two characters further on.
--><lb n="5" break="no"/>r atyanta-svāmi-ma<del><gap reason="illegible" quantity="1" unit="character"/></del>hā-bhairava-bhaktasya Aṁsa-bhāra-saṁnive<!--
L5. There is an illegible deleted character after ma, as noted by K.

L5. K reads sannive at the end, but saṁnive is the correct reading.
--><lb n="6" break="no"/>śita-śiva-liṅgo<del><gap reason="illegible" quantity="1" unit="character"/></del>dvahana-śiva-suparituṣṭa-samutpādita<!--
L6. According to Kolte there is another deleted character after liṅgo. This, unlike the one in l5, is not at all visible in the rubbing; there is less than a standard character's width of (seemingly empty) space before dva, and a very small space after it.

L17. There seems to be a hook attached to the bottom of mā in mārggānu°. Perhaps an engraving mistake.
--><!--
L17. As Kolte notes, the phrases pūrvva° and sunaya° qualifying Pravarasena only occur, beside this text, in the Balaghat plates of PTHSII and the Sivano plates of PVSII.

L19. K prints the anusvāra of sutāyāṁ as clear; it is not visible at all in the rubbing.

L22. K reads guṇa-viśvāsād apahr̥ta as clear, but this is not at all the case in the rubbing and I have my doubts about the original plate. Shastri_1995:40 claims that these plates confirm his reading (based on the Mandhal plates of year 10), guṇavad-dāyādāpahr̥ta-vaṁśa-śriyaḥ. I think Shastri is right or almost right; I mark up what I see in the rubbings.
--><!--
L22. K reads kosalā; I see no ā mātrā at all. Same for the lā of mekalā.
--><lb n="23" break="no"/>vādhipa<unclear>t</unclear>i<supplied reason="omitted">bhi</supplied>r abhyarccita-śāsa<unclear>na</unclear>sya pratāpa-praṇatār<choice><sic>ā</sic><corr>i</corr></choice>-<supplied reason="omitted">śā</supplied>sanasya<!--
L23. There is something between rā and sa; this (including what appears to be the incorrect ā mātrā of rā) may be an insertion mark between the characters and a very small śā below them, next to the hook of rā.
--><lb n="24"/>vākāṭakānā<unclear>ṁ</unclear> mahārāja-śr<choice><sic>i</sic><corr>ī</corr></choice>-narendrasenasya sūnoḥ kuntalādhi<unclear>pa</unclear>ti<!--

L25. The name of ajjhitabhaṭṭārikā is very clear here (though part of bha is damaged and ṭṭ is not visible at all in the rubbing). Kolte even comments that the ā mātrā of ṭṭā is unusual in that it is "on the top of the head-line and not to its left[?sic] as usual", so the character must be visible in the original plate.

L27. K reads Surambī; S corrects to ārambī (then talks about ārambi), which is definitely the right reading. (From the rubbing, i or ī are equally possible) Compare IN00167:13 and IN00171:26,29.
--><!--
L27. The punctuation sign, not read by K, is a horizontal dash.

L32. K reads nāndīpuraka as clear. The ī is not visible, of pu there is only an u mātrā and the bottom left corner; nothing remains of ra, except what looks like an i mātrā at the top, which may be noise or something not read by K.
--><!--
L32. K reads ubbhi, but ī is clear.
--><lb n="33" break="no"/>lakasya dakṣiṇena| jalakukkubhakasya Uttareṇa| jamalakheṭa<!--
L33. K reads jalakutkubhaka, which sounds weird; I think the upper part is k and a bit of the right arm is visible.
--><lb n="34" break="no"/>kaṁ nāma grāmaḥ pr̥thivīpura-v<sic>a</sic>stavyo vājasaneyi-kāśyapa-sa<lb n="35" break="no"/>gotro viṣṇu<space type="binding-hole"/>datta-bhavadattābhyām apūrvva-da<unclear>ty</unclear>ā Udaka<!--
L35. K emends gotro to gotra-, but emends vastavyo to vāstavyo, leaving the ending. I prefer not to emend; the intent was probably to use nominatives as a sort of "compound". Alternatively, au endings may have been intended, but that would strike me as weirder.
--><!--
L35. The ty of datyā is not visible in the rubbing. K reads dattā, correcting to dattyā. Shri thinks an original ttyā was corrected to ttā, noting that "the original yā is clearly visible". However, his text reads tyā, which is neither ttyā nor ttā.
--><lb n="36" break="no"/>-pūrvvam atisr̥ṣṭaḥ</p>
<p>Ucitāṁś cāsya pūrvva-rājānumatāṁś c<unclear>ā</unclear>turvvaidya<!--
L36. ucitāṁś and °numatāṁś are clear and correct, as in perhaps no other Vākāṭaka plate. (K reads the latter without the ś, but this is an oversight, śc is clear).
--><lb n="37" break="no"/>-grāma-maryyādā-parihārān vitarāmaḥ<supplied reason="subaudible">.</supplied> tad yathā| A-kara-d<unclear>āyī</unclear><!--
L37. K reads dāyī, which I accept, but the character including the vowel mark is unclear, and almost all cognate plates have dāyi. (However, from what is visible in the rubbings, ī is indeed more likely than i.

L41. K reads saklaptopaklaptaḥ; Shri has saklaptopaklapteḥ. I see nothing like e in pta. The l̥ mātrās are none too clear, but they don't look like proper subscript l-s.

L43. I see no visarga after saṁrakṣitavya, though K prints one as clear.

L44. The punctuation mark after vā is a single dash.

L45. The unnecessary visarga after kuryyāma may in fact be a punctuation mark, but I feel the visarga is more likely.
--><!--
L45. K reads no anusvāra in asmiṁś; I think it's there, but inside the i mātrā.

L45. The error dharmmādakaraṇe may be a sort of bridge from dharmmādara to dharmmādhi°.

L47. The anusvāra of °ārtthaṁ is above and to the left of the repha, perhaps because of ttā hanging down from above.

L47. K reads saṁkalpā°; the plate has ṅka.

L50. K reads sva. K also notes in his palaeographic discussion that subscript v is very similar to subscript y - but by the very criterion he defines, this is sya.

L51. The punctuation mark at the end of the verse is a double short vertical at midline height.

L52. Shri (this note is not there in K) avers that "the word saptā(pta)daśe is clearly readable and this reading is undoubtedly correct". I mark up what is visible in the rubbing.

L52. K prints an original double daṇḍa at the end, but I see no closing punctuation.
