132 AN INSCRIPTION ON A 



The original chara&er of this infcription is very dif- 

 ferent from the modern form; but it fo much refembles 

 that on the plate found by Col. Watson at Mongueer, 

 that I am induced to conclude it to be the work of the 

 fame period. The language is Samjkreet, and the whole 

 is comprifed in twenty -eight metrical verfes of various 

 meafures,
