Of this inscription very little is intelligible. 



" May Sankara, by whose dancing the curls of his matted hair were 

 dishevelled, and the shining stars, struck by his uplifted arras, 

 were agitated ; whose laughter surpasses the beauty of pearls ; the 

 enemy of Chanda ; and whose person is adorned with snakes as a sacred 

 thread, * * * may he belong to us every day ! 



" There was a Raja the source of the Vedas, the place of morality, 

 modesty, the dwelling of renown * * * well versed in all the Shas- 

 tras ; who became a perfect yogi and hence attained the undisturbed 

 fruit of Brahma, and who was the speaker of divine knowledge, 

 and who though powerful was yet gentle, and like the sun the lotus, de- 

 lighted good persons ; who was a donor and extremely kind, and an ex- 

 ample to the human race." 



" His son was Jatiladhi, whose principle was to gain the affection 

 of others : though he was Doshakara, (the mine of guilt,) yet he was 

 not unclean (or though he was Doshakara, the maker of light, i. e. the 

 moon, yet he was without spot.) 



(The rest unintelligible with exception of unconnected sentences.)
