7Half [a measure] of land in the ‘Fresh clearing’ (putu-ttiruttu) on the west of the village of [Cō]tiyampākkam, which is a village [belonging to] this god; half [a measure] on the south of the ‘Tamarind field’ (puḷiyañ-ceṟuvu); [and] one and a half [measure] on the west of the inundation channel (veḷḷakkāl) in the field [kollai] of [Svaba]la.

9At the festival, on seven days, to four persons [10+] and [for] the annual worship, half a kaḻañcu. I, Cakrapāṇi Nampi, approve of this order of the assembly.
