Illustrious Shaka years passed 1280 (1) , in the month Shrawana (2) , the beginning of the waxing moon, Haryang (3) , Umanis (4) , Shaneshcara (5) , / the week Madangkungan (6) , north-east planet course, Pusya, constellation, Jiwa deity, Agneya circle, Bajra conjunction, Rodra hour, Shashi prawesha (7), / Naga karana (8) , Karkata (9) zodiac sign; that was the time of the Order of His Magnificence the Illustrious Wilwa-Tikta (10) compound's Master, the Illustrious Rajasanagara by His Royal consecration name, / "enjoying several exquisite maidens resembling divine nymphs, tribute of foreign Princes who were vanquished by His mandarins, renowned in the field", by His birth-name: / the high-born Sir the Illustrious Hayam Wuruk, having for fortune-bringer the Order of the Magnificent Lady the Illustrious Three World's supreme divine Queen Jaya Wisnuwardhani by Her Royal consecration name, / "the abode of skill in the art of composing dances etcetera", "pure-minded like holy water", established yonder in the Royal compound of Kahuripan, the high-born Dame the Illustrious /

"Hence", on that account there is a development and flowering [to use those terms] of virtue / in the Magnificent Lord the Illustrious Kertawardhana, the Great King. His characteristics that were like this, were the cause of His borrowing the name of the Lord the Illustrious Wisnuwardhana, namely / Master Sminingrat. It was at the same time as the Order of the Magnificent Lady the Divine Queen Maharajasa by Her Royal consecration name, "gold, jewels, gems, /

"Complete", all these now are / "absorbed in the explanation of books of learning, Kutara Manawa etcetera", altogether they are devoted to the discussion of the books, in the first place Kutara Manawa, with a view to acquire firm knowledge /
[Plate 3, verso,] of the right and wrong of the pleas of two litigants. Furthermore the bishop over the Sogata (13) clergy, monsignor of Padelegan, the reverend doctor Nadendra, "in Buddhist / speculation and grammar lore consummate", having for naryama (14) the bishop over the Shiwaite clergy, by puspapata-name: the reverend doctor Dharmaraja, having for padasthan-title : / the honoured Honourable Rajaparakrama, "nominated bishop for the protection of exalted priests and clerics", by His Magnificence the Illustrious Great King given the charge of bishop, / with the end in view: to protect the common monsignors belonging to the Shiwaite clergy, in the first place the exalted priests. At the coming off of the Order of His Magnificence the Illustrious Great King, instruction was given to the ferrymen yonder of all districts of the Island of Java, / in the first place to Master Margabhaya, who has the kasir-kasir-name Ajaran Rata, established in Canggu, to have the honoured holy Charter of the Lord's Order made, / provided with the Rajasanagara mark, inscribed either on copper, on ripta (15) or on stones, to be kept by those same ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java. /

[Plate 5 (?), verso,] Sumbang, Malo, Ngijo, Kawangen, Sudah, Kukutu, Balun, Marebo, Turan, Jipang, Ngawi, Wangkalang, / Penuh, Wulung, Barang, Pakatelan, Wareng, Ngamban, Kembu, Wulayu, "Complete", all those are various rural districts on the banks of the rivers, / places of the ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java. It is some time ago that they have petitioned for a Charter of the Lord's Order provided with the Rajasanagara mark. As to the state of the / ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java, and in the first place Master Margabhaya goodman Ajaran Rata and Master Angraksaji goodman Ajaran Ragi, they shall be purely and completely independent, / not troubled by activities of outsiders, not visited by the dependents of the Three Bold Ones (?), namely Pangkur, Tawan, Tirip, all kinds of nayakas, partayas, White Ones, / akurugs, awajuhs, wadihadis, all members of their group, in the first place the rawehs, and all those who claim the Lord's dues, wulu-wulu parawulu, /
[Plate 9, recto,] their bearers' loads, of all the proceeds of the sale. So many are the subjects that shall not be liable to the Lord's impositions. If there is an excess above the limit the excess shall be liable to the claims of those who possess the privilege thereof. / The total sum of the Lord's part shall not be exceeded. Also a permission (16) is vouchsafed to the ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java: at the time that the honoured holy Charter of the Lord's Order is worshipped / they are allowed to organize cock-fights, nita-gambling and judi-gambling. They can have music of combined curing-instruments (17) at the time of their worship dashardha (18) times, purwapara (19) at the time that the honoured holy Charter of the Lord's Order is worshipped. / Now, because of the magnitude of the great happiness of the ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java, in the first place Master Margabhaya and Master Angraksaji, goodman Ajaran Ragi, / who is established in Terung, they now produce a festival-tax : every gift in cash that goes with their flower-offerings while respectfully making the anjali-salutation for the honoured holy Charter of the Lord's Order is 400 [copper cash] each, / paid every full moon of Asadha (21) . Further there is a favour of His Magnificence the Illustrious Great King: if there are male or female servants, wives or concubines, /
[Plate 9, verso,] indeed anybody whosoever who has left a master, running away from his or her master, then certainly the ferryman shall not be charged for taking that person off from the river bank. As long as / the ferryman's character proves to be good he is cleared from the Eight Larcenies. Further if there is a woman who falls into the water, anybody whosoever, and then she is caught by the ferryman, / certainly the ferryman shall not be found guilty of "laying hold of a woman" for taking her off and catching her. Further if there is a person who, having been obliged by being ferried over, afterwards gives something / to the ferryman, anything whatsoever his gift may be, and even if it is a fact that that person has come by that gift by committing a crime, then the ferryman shall not be in fault, / he shall not be found guilty of "receiving ill-gotten goods". Further, if while a ferryman has put on board the cart of an akalang (22) , whatsoever the merchandise, then that merchandise falls into the water, / then that ferryman shall not be charged, but then he shall not be given ferriage if that merchandise is lost. Further if there are /
[Plate 10, recto,] goods floating away on the stream, anything whatsoever, and then they are caught by the ferryman, then that ferryman is not in fault if he asks for a reward for his troubles in catching the goods and taking care of them, / and so any gift from the owner can be accepted. Such are the favours vouchsafed by the Illustrious Great King to the ferrymen of the whole of the Island of Java, in the first place Ajaran Rata. "In conclusion", / finally now, respectfully making the anjali-salutation, those ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java, in the first place Master Margabhaya goodman Ajaran Rata, and / Master Angraksaji "pay homage principally by several pieces of cloth of great value"; those several pieces of cloth constitute every time the gift that goes with the flower-offering of those men while respectfully making the anjali-salutation / in the dust before His Magnificence the Illustrious Great King, because of the magnitude of the great happiness of the ferrymen being allowed to have in their keeping the honoured holy Charter of the Lord's Order / provided with the Rajasanagara mark. Further the Right Honourable the Mandarins Three are presented with confirmation gifts according to custom. Further the Right Honourable chamberlain, /
[Plate 10, verso,] the Right Honourable chancellor, the Right Honourable aidede-camp, the Right Honourable commander-in-chief altogether are presented with confirmation gifts according to custom, having for naryamas (23) the honoured bishop / over the Shiwaite-clergy and the honoured bishop over the Buddhist clergy, both presented with confirmation gifts according to custom, and all the honoured assessors-at-law altogether / are presented with confirmation gifts according to custom, with a view to the binding over and over again the favours vouchsafed by His Magnificence the Illustrious Great King to those ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java, / in the first place Master Margabhaya goodman Ajaran Rata and Master Angraksaji goodman Ajaran Ragi. Finished, successful and fixed. As to the case that there are persons / who introduce changes in the sense of the honoured holy Charter of the Lord's Order that is kept by the ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java, in the first place Master Margabhaya goodman Ajaran Rata / and Master Angraksaji goodman Ajaran Ragi, moreover if there is a suppression of the independence of the ferrymen of all districts of the Island of Java /
