Ettakaṁ tassa bhagavato suttāgataṁ suttapariyāpannaṁ anvaddhamāsaṁ uddesaṁ āgacchati. Tattha sabbeheva samaggehi sammodamānehi avivadamānehi sikkhitabbanti.

“Venerables, the introduction has been recited; the four rules on expulsion have been recited; the thirteen rules on suspension have been recited; the two undetermined rules have been recited; the thirty rules on relinquishment and confession have been recited; the ninety-two rules on confession have been recited; the four rules on acknowledgment have been recited; the rules of training have been recited; the seven principles for the settling of legal issues have been recited.
