1896.] N. N. Vasu—Copperplate-grant of Vieva-riipa. 9 
9th of the copper-plate grant under review the name Vicvaripa is 
perfectly legible and in large characters, but in other places in the 
former as well as in similar places in the latter (line 22 and 38) the 
name appears in small characters. Prinsep’s fac-simile not having 
been in clear print, the above name in small characters does not appear 
very legible, whereas these small characters in the lines noted in the 
present copper-plate give the name most clearly. Whuat Prinsep calls 
marks of erasures, are not so, I think, because where they appeared to 
him to be such, in the very same places occur the small characters. 
I regard these in both the grants as Royal sign-manuals.
