The side chambers were in three stories, one above the other, thirty in each story. There were offsets in the wall all around to serve as supports for the side chambers, so that the supports were not in the wall of the temple.

The width of the outer wall of the side chambers was 8¾ feet, and the open area between the side chambers of the temple

I saw that the temple had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full measuring stick of 10½ feet high.

There were narrow windows and decorative palm trees on either side of the side walls of the porch; this is what the side chambers of the temple and the canopies were like.

Then he measured the wall of the temple as 10½ feet, and the width of the side chambers as 7 feet, all around the temple.

There were entrances from the side chambers toward the open area, one entrance toward the north, and another entrance toward the south; the width of the open area was 8¾ feet all around.

The side chambers surrounding the temple were wider at each successive story; for the structure surrounding the temple went up story by story all around the temple. For this reason the width of the temple increased as it went up, and one went up from the lowest story to the highest by the way of the middle story.
