P. The inscription contains 19 lines, and is incised on one side of a single copper plate. There is a ring-hole at the lower part of the plate; but 'the ring with the seal attached to it' is lost. In the upper-middle part of the plate however there is engraved the figure of the goddess \*Lakṣmī\* sitting in the \*Padmāsana\* with an elephant at each side 'standing on what looks like an expanded water lily,² pouring water over her head.' The inscription opens with \*Om̐ svasti\* and a verse praising the princes of the \*Candrātreya-vaṁśa\*. In that family lustrous because of the appearance of Jayaśakti and Vijayaśakti, arose \*Pb.-M.-P.-Kīrtivarmadeva pādānudhyāta-Pb.-M.-P.-Pṛthvīvarmadeva-pādānudhyāta-Pb.-M.-P.-Paramamāheśvara-Kālañjarādhipati-Madanavarmadeva\*. Then follows some vague praise of the last ruler, after which we are told that this king, from his residence near Bhailasvāmin (mod. Bhilsa) granted a piece of land measuring 10 ploughs (\*hala\*) of the village Vambaraḍā in the Suḍali-\*viṣaya\* to a Brāhman who was an emigrant from the village of Ḍhakārī, in the (\*V.\*) \*Saṁvat\* 1190 (A. D. 1134). The inscription was written by the \*Dharmalekhi\* (law-writer?) Ṭhāsīsuḍha, and engraved by the \*Vijñānika\* Jalhaṇa.¹ - [Previous: v2.c28.225](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c28.225) - [Next: v2.c28.227](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c28.227) - [Up: v2.c28](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c28) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c28.226](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c28.226) · Pramāṇa
