The Mantra is ॐ नमो नारायणाय  (OM namo nArAyaNAya) and the quote under number 147 on the screenshot is from "Shree Narada-Purana".

Enhanced and optimized scan - just 20MB in black-and-white + OCR-text-layer in English. 
The English translation by Sanjukta Gupta is very good, but don't forget that 2 Sanskrit-Hindi editions also exist: 

1. By Sudhakara Malaviya (#scan on archive.org) and 
2. By KapilaDeva Narayana (seems that nobody had made a scan yet, but I personally have a paper version in my home library - it is very good).

"Religion and Philosophy of Nalayira Divya Prabandham with special reference to NammAlvar" by Dr.N.Subbu Reddiar - Sri Venkateswara University - 1977

DOWNLOAD (English, 31MB):

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: The unique and brilliant 900-pages research, written by a Shaivite (!!!). 

The 1st part contains synopsis of classic Vaishnavism and "Shree Bhagavata-Purana" especially, while the 2nd part is dedicated to Shree NammAlwar. 

Very much recommended, in spite of being written by a Shaivite, the research is purely Vaishnava and contains the very massive list of Vaishnava Pramanas from classical sources!!!

Sri Vaishnavas know the term "Nalayira" perfectly, but if someone just started to study the Orthodox Vaishnavism, here is a good explanation from Wikipedia article (see below or #flickr, #plurk):

As usually I have optimized the scan - the size is just 31MB + OCR-txt-layer. Scan quality example (see below or on #flickr, #plurk, #box):
