Paragraph 18

In plain words

In the row of rooms south of the courtyard are the office and the quarters of the staff. The treasurer and the clerk are always here, and the storekeeper, the servants and maids, the priests, the cooks, the brahmin helpers and the gatekeepers are always coming and going. Some rooms are kept locked; in them are stored the temple furnishings, the carpets, the awnings and such things. Some of these rooms used to be made into storerooms for the Paramahamsa's birthday festival, and on the ground to their south the cooking for the great festival was done.
