[2] Atque ita paribus spatiis ordines diriguntur. Quod deinde cum est factum, fossor insequitur, scrobemque alternis omissis in ordinem spatiis a calamo ad proximum calamum non minus altum quam duo pedes et semissem planis locis refodit, acclivibus in ¹²³⁴⁵ dupondium⁶et dodrantem, praecipitibus etiam in tres pedes. In hanc mensuram scrobibus depressis viviradices ita deponuntur ut a media scrobe singulae in diversum sternantur, et contrariis frontibus fossarum ad calamos erigantur.
