The excess (to be added) to the original form (of the fire-altar) should be divided into 15 parts and two parts be added to each fold (of 1 *sq. puruṣa*; after 14 parts are in this way added to 7 folds of 7 *sq. puruṣa*, the remaining part is added to ½ *sq. puruṣa*). The (new) fire-altar is to be laid with such (increased) 7½ folds.
