Therewith the dimensions of all required bricks are detailed ; it remains 

 to show how the area of the s'yena is to be covered with them. 



"When placing the bricks we have to put down sixty of the first kind 

 in each wing, turned towards the north. 



On both sides of the tail eight of the sixth description. 



Three of them in the top (i. e., in each of the two western corners of 

 the tail), then one (to the east of the three), then again three, then again 

 one. 



At the place where the tail is joined to the body, two bricks of the 

 fourth description are placed, so as to lie partly in the body, partly in the 

 tail. (They are composed of a triangle and an oblong ; the triangle be- 

 longs to the body, the oblong to the tail). 



To the west of these two, bricks of the fifth kind are placed touching 

 each other with their faces (their short sides). 



They touch each other, says one of the commentators, with their faces, 

 like two lighting rams.

Ten bricks of the fourth kind cover the remainder of the tail. 



In the four corners of the atman eight bricks of the fourth description 

 are placed, turned towards the east and towards the west. 



In the remainder of the atman are to be placed twenty-six of the fourth 

 class, eight of the sixth, four of the fifth.

 In the head two bricks of the fourth kind, situated partly in the atman. 



To the east of those, two of the fourth kind turned towards the east. 

 These altogether form one layer of two hundred bricks. 

 The rules for the second layer follow. 



In the second layer place five bricks of the second kind in both wings 

 on the place of curvature.
