v2.c13.s1.52

The temples of the seventh group are introduced by the temple Gṛha, the house shape, which has a ridged roof or Valabhī. Gṛha, however is also the name of another kind of temple (verse 15) whose roof is a Śṛṅga. These two prototypal temples, called 'houses' seem to have had the one a peaked roof and the other a ridged roof.
