[20] There is a flat-roofed dwelling (hammiya) belonging to a single family: having deposited the robe within the flat-roofed dwelling, one should stay within the flat-roofed dwelling. There is a flat-roofed dwelling belonging to different families, having various rooms and various inner chambers: in whatever room the robe has been deposited, one should stay in that room, or at the base of the doorway, or one should not depart beyond arm's reach (hatthapāsa).
