When the whole wall has been smeared with clay, reeds are to be fixed right along with broad-headed nails. When a second layer of clay is put on, if the first coat has been set with horizontal reeds, the second must be set with the reeds vertical; according to the previous instructions, coats of sand and marble and indeed the complete coat of stucco may then be laid on.
