De l’octogénaire Bhoja, qui érigea ici le liṅga, les dents tombées de sa bouche ont été déposées à la base de triśūla.

Translation by Kunthea Chhom and Arlo Griffiths

Of Bhoja, the eighty-year-old installer of the liṅga here, the canine teeth which had fallen from his mouth were placed at the base of the trident.
