Je vais indiquer la mesure en hauteur et en circonférence du liṅga sur le Liṅgādri et de la montagne dans Liṅgapura.

Le liṅga mesure en hauteur quinze brasses et demie, en circonférence cinquante-huit brasses.

De la base du liṅga au sol de la plaine, la montagne mesure en hauteur deux mille sept cent vingt brasses.

La montagne dans la ville nommée Giriśa mesure en hauteur mille sept cent vingt-six - - -

Les trois cascades d'eau sacrée, fréquentées par une légion de sages, imitent là en tout temps la Gangā au triple courant.

les deux dimensions de l'esplanade au sommet de cette montagne sont vingt-deux brasses de largeur et trente brasses de longueur.

For the gap in stanza 1, "sānu, śṛṅga, śikhā, kūṭa, etc. would be good restitutions for the meaning, but there does not seem to be enough space for these various words." (4163).

In stanza 4, "The characters between eka (which should perhaps be read as ekaṁ) and sapta are not very distinct" (4164).

In stanza 5, regarding the word tripathagāminīm, "the transcribed character -mi- looks more like tha, dha or śa but only mi is possible." (4171).

It should be noted that the translation of the number 26 in stanza 4 is not certain.
