Notes	Text C: Bl.12.r.: enta / citta / r paṭal (most likely reading) — string, held by a piece of wood (3 cm long) — the characters are mostly blackened, — palm leaf — The verb "kuṇamā-tal" (Text C) means: to be healed, to be made healthy again. Under certain circumstances it is Cittar medicine. Text B mentions "pañca pūtam". In the context of medicine, “pañcapūtaccarakku” means five medicinal substances: tāḷakam (the mineral auripigment), vīram (ginger), kauri (mustard or the type of basil called Tuḷaci), veḷḷai (calcium hydroxide: slaked lime), liṅkam (the mineral cinnabarite, a mercury sulfide, in colloquial language also called "cinnabar"). The gloss (enta cittar paṭal; "paṭal" for "pāṭal"?) for text C could be called: a Poem by which cittar? The verse counting suggests poetry.
