References

page 538 note 1 Taṁ Nāgapālaṁ Lalita-kṣitīśaś-cakāra rājānaka-śabda-vācyam (10th verse). I must note that the reading rājānaka is due to a restoration, which fits with the metre, and is confirmed by another inscription in which Nāgapāla is called rājānaka.

page 540 note 1 Miān, i.e. Miyāṅ, is the title given to the Rājpūts of the Panjāb Hills. It dates apparently back to the time when the sons of hill chiefs used to stay at the Mughal court, and was, so it seems, originally applied to them exclusively. It has gradually become a caste-name for Hill Rājpūts in general.
