Now that the planning of palaces has been discussed in brief, let us take up the other two classes of houses, the special houses called the Sabhā and the houses for animals, stables for horses and elephants in this fresh chapter. Though these structures formed a part of the palace and could have been treated in one chapter, but I have not done so in order to keep up their individual characteristics as a class of architecture by itself. Being accessory to the Palace, they are being dealt with in continuation with the Palace in this auxiliary chapter.
