There is so much that is common between this inscription and 
the first, that it seems needless to translate it in full. I shall, 
therefore, restrict myself to a punctual specification of its variations 
from the other. 
It is dated in the forenoon, on the second day of the moon’s 
increase in Chaitra, in the year Mahas’wa-yuja^ one hundred and

cited. 
•j* This family has long passed away. It may be remembered in the larger 
Hindu genealogies : it is not in the smaller. For what may be the same name

§ These persons, from Devadanga inclusive, bear very strange appellations,
