This unusual shape is explained by the limited space left by the long descender of the akṣara ka in the preceding line. Unusual i and ī markers, adapting to similar constraints, may be observed elsewhere, for instance in EIAD 40 (Naga 19), ll. 7 (in nī) and 8 (in ni).

Success! Homage to the Bhagavant, the Perfectly and Completely Awakened One! In year 35 of King Vāseṭṭhīputta Siri-Puḷumāvi, in fortnight 2 of the summer, on day 10. An agarika and a covering of slabs: the pious gifts—for the Adhālaka Great Shrine—of me, bhikkhunī Dhammasirī, of the Korukullas, together with my mother and father, with my preceptor the reverend Varaṇabhūti, and with reverend Sīha; for the well-being and happiness of all beings.
