摩羅提國（具云摩羅耶提致此云鬘陀或曰摩羅耶者山名也提數中也言此國中央有摩羅耶山故因名也）。

Malayadeśa 摩羅提國 (in full: Malayadeśa 摩羅耶提致; translated here as "Mālatī" [鬘陀]; or it is said: Malaya 摩羅耶 is the name of a mountain, and deśa 提數 means "within"; this means that in the centre of this country there is Mount Malaya, hence it is named after it).
