Ind.\*, Vol. III, p. 343; text lines 55-57; etc. Sometimes the first half becomes the second and we have \*Rāmabhadraḥ\* (or the name of the donor—ibid., Vol. XXVIII, p. 283, text line 35) for \*Rāmacandraḥ\*, \*krameṇa\* (ibid., Vol. XXIX, p. 9, text line 55) for \*bhavadbhiḥ\*, and \*dattvā bhūmiṁ\* (ibid., Vol. XXXII, p. 76, text line 36) for \*sarvān=etān\*. We have also \*prārthayaty=eṣa Rāmaḥ\* in the last quarter (ibid., Vol. VI, p. 62, verse 34). In some cases, we have the first half as: \*Bho rājānaḥ prārthayaty=eṣa Rāmo bhūyo bhūyo prārthaniyā narendrāḥ\* followed by \*sāmānyo='yaṁ\*, (ibid., Vol. XXXI, p. 288, text line 27) or as: \*Sarvān=eva prārthayaty=eṣa Rāmo bhūyo bhūyo bhāvinaḥ pārthivendrān\*, and \*rakṣaṇiyaḥ for pālaniyaḥ\* in the second half (\*Ep. Carn.\*, Vol. III, Md. No. 113). For \*setur=narāṇām\*, \*sve sve kāle for kāle kāle\*, and \*bhūmi-pālān for pārthivendrān\*, see Chhabra, \*Antiquities of Chamba State\*, II, p. 178. For \*Sāmānyo='yaṁ dāna-dharmaḥ\*, \*sve sve kāle\*, see \*Ind. Ant.\*, Vol. VI, pp. 195, 202. \*Ep. Carn.\*, Vol. V, Arsikere No. 90, gives \*etān=sadyo for sarvān=etān\*. In the Kalasan (Java) inscription of \*Śaka\* 700, the stanza reads \*Sarvān=ev=āgāminaḥ pārthivendrān=bhūyo bhūyo yācate rājasimhaḥ | sāmānyo='yaṁ dharma-setur=narāṇām\*, etc. (Chatterjee and Chakravarti, \*India and Java\*, p. 46). The \*Skanda Purāṇa\*, op. cit., verse 40, has it as: \*Dattvā bhūmiṁ bhāvinaḥ pārthiveśān=bhūyo bhūyo yācate Rāmacandraḥ | sāmānyo='yaṁ dharma-setur=nṛpāṇāṁ sve sve kāle pālaniyo bhavadbhiḥ ||\* See No. 118. - [Previous: c13.247](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sircar-1965.c13.247) - [Next: c13.249](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sircar-1965.c13.249) - [Up: c13](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sircar-1965.c13) ## Cites (9) - [Epigraphia Indica](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.corpora.ei) - [Epigraphia Carnatica](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.corpora.ec) - [Skandapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit - [Paṭṇā Copper-plate Grant of the sixth year of Mahā-Bhavagupta I.](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.east.somavamsin.patna-copper-plate-grant-of-the-sixth-year-of-maha) — Sanskrit - [Plates of Nēṭṭabhañja Tribhuvanakalaśa](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.east.bhanja.plates-of-nettabhanja-tribhuvanakalasa) — Sanskrit - [No. 3](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.unlocated.chaulukya.no-3) — Sanskrit - [Rājapraśasti Inscription of Udaipur, Slab II (Canto I)](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.west.guhila.rajaprasasti-inscription-of-udaipur-slab-ii-canto-i) — Sanskrit - [Plate of Padmaṭadēva, Year 25](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.north.katyuri.plate-of-padmatadeva-year-25) — Sanskrit - [Atakur Inscription of the time of Krishna III. ; dated Saka-Samvat 872](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.deccan.rastrakuta.atakur-inscription-of-the-time-of-krishna-iii-dated-saka*fleet1901) — Kannada --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sircar-1965.c13.248](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sircar-1965.c13.248) · Pramāṇa
