(1) Apratishiddhālindaṁ samantato vāstu sarvato-bhadram। Nṛipa-vibudha-samūhānāṁ kāryaṁ dvāraiś chaturbhir api॥ “An edifice with uninterrupted terraces on every side is termed Sarvato-bhadra (i.e. goodly on every side); such a one is fit for kings and gods, and ought to have four entrances.” (Bṛihat-saṁhitā, LIII. 31, J. R. A. S., N. S., vol. VI. p. 285).
