Hail! When the illustrious Mahāmaṇḍalēśvaran lord of large territory, Arirāyavipāṭan destroyer of enemy kings, Bhaṣaikkut tappuvarāya-kaṇṭaṉ punisher of kings who breaks their promise or disobey royal orders, Mūvarāyara-kaṇṭaṉ the vanquisher of the three kings, Catuḥsamudrādhipati lord of the four oceans śrī-Vīra-Dēvarayar’s son, the illustrious śrī-Vijayabhūpatirāyar, is pleased to rule over the earth, on Wednesday, the 10th day of the bright fortnight of the month of Taṉu, in the year Viḷampi when the asterism Rēvāti was current, in the expired Śaka year 1340, it was ordered that there was no iṭaṅkai community or valaṅkai community in Tiru Aṇṇāmalai in Vāṇakōppāṭi, on the northern bank of the Peṇṇai in Ceṅkuṉṟa-kōṭṭam in Jayaṅgoṇṭacōḻa-maṇṭalam.

At Tiru Aṇṇāmalai the Kaikōḷars of the two streets would have all the rights, as were enjoyed by them in olden days, like conch, taṇṭu palanquin, elephant, and fly-wisk and all other privileges of the valaṅgai community till the moon and the sun endure. One who destroyed this act would become a civatturōki and a traitor to the king.
