Tasya sūtrāt tu tat-pūrve hastaṁ tad-dvāra-madhyame ।
Evaṁ dakshiṇato dvāraṁ tad-dhi tāro(-raṁ) tathoktavat ।
Uttare dvāraṁ tat sūtrāt pratyag-hastāvasānakam ।
Chatur-dikshu chatur-dvāraṁ yuktaṁ vā neshyate budhaiḥ ।
Pūrve paśchimake vāpi dvāram etad(-kaṁ) dvayor api ।
Paritaś chatur-aśrāgrād dvāraṁ kuryāt tu sarvadā ।
Etat sarvaṁ mahā-dvāram upa-dvāram ichochyate ।
