Wait, if it's the verso of a plate, there's no actual text printed on this side of the paper except possibly the faint header at the top. Wait, look closely at the faint header: \`PLATE LXXII\` - [Previous: v2.c19.678](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.coomaraswamy-1916.v2.c19.678) - [Next: v2.c19.680](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.coomaraswamy-1916.v2.c19.680) - [Up: v2.c19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.coomaraswamy-1916.v2.c19) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.coomaraswamy-1916.v2.c19.679](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.coomaraswamy-1916.v2.c19.679) · Pramāṇa
