Statement
A stone that resists hammering is split by heating with fire (and quenching). Tank banks are hardened by trampling and rammers and shaded with named trees; the outlet is a stone sluice with an apertureless mud-fastened panel. Muddy/bitter/salt/foul water is purified by dropping in a six-ingredient mixture (antimony, Bhadramusta bulbs, andropogon, Rajakoshataka, myrobalan, Kataka nuts).
