Ordre de Sa Majesté au sujet du V.K.A. Siddhāyatana à Cuṅ Muh, dont il fait réunir les moyens de subsistance avec ceux du V.K.A. Śrī Acaleśvara: les esclaves, les boeufs, les buffles, les rizières, le paddy, les potagers, les terrains bas, les brûlis, donnés par tous les gens au dieu:

ceux qui dérobent ceci, ceux qui prennent les gens ici, ceux qui agissent à l'intérieur de ceci, ceux qui donnent des ordres à ceci, ceux qui exigent avec insolence ici, ceux qui lient et tressent des bouts de sdau ici, ceux qui prennent les boeufs, les voitures, les barques ici, ceux qui contestent l'ordre royal, ceux-là seront punis.
