TRANSLATION
Now, as regards the position of the pho-na (messengers) of Sel :—The name of the first who went as a messenger was Tshe-dbaii-dpal-hbyor, the forefather ; his son was Don-grub-bkra-sis ; his son [was] Tshe-riii-phun-tshogs. These three generations went as far as Dpe-ti (Spyi-ti), Dkar-cha (Lahul), and burn-ti (Kulű), carrying sulphur from La-dvags. They also had to look after good and bad works (inflict judgment). There was a custom that on their way back they had to transport iron. Blo-bzan-bsod-nams, the son of Tshe-rin-phun-tshogs, is still alive. Regarding the way of travelling of those pho-na : At the time when the kings of La-dvags were still in power Dpe-ti, Dkarcha, N uni-ti were under [the sway of] the kings of La-dvags. The house where the pho-nas resided in Nuffi-ti still exists, as [people] say.
NOTE
It is remarkable that the only pho-na who is mentioned in the La-dvags-rgyal-rabs, viz. Bsod-nams-jiosgrub, cannot be found in the above list.
