INSCRIPTIONS OF THE KALACHURIS OF RATANPUR
1 Metre: Vasantatilakā.
2 The vowel of अनूजस्य is lengthened for the sake of the metre. Many other records of the Kalachuris of
Ratanpur (e.g., No 76, 1. 10; No 89, 1. 7, above) read अन्वये.which seems to be better, since such a
word required to be connected with

the letter ग, at the top of ङ्अ मु Metre: Anushṭubh.
