'Two Bhikkhus have been guilty of a Samgh\u00e2disesa offence, and as touching that Samgh\u00e2disesa offence they are of opinion that it is a Samgh\u00e2disesa. One of them thinks: \"I will tell (the Samgha of it).\" The other thinks: \"I will not tell (the Samgha of it);\" and during the first watch of the night he conceals it, and during the second watch of the night he conceals\nit, and during the third watch of the night he conceals it.

He who has concealed it [&c.; the penalty is the same as before] 1.\n'Two Bhikkhus have been guilty of a Samgh\u00e2disesa offence. When the P\u00e2timokkha is being recited they say thus: \"Now do we come to perceive it; for this rule they say has been handed down in the Suttas, is contained in the Suttas, and comes into recitation every half month.\" As touching that Samgh\u00e2disesa offence, they (thus) come to be of\nopinion that it is a Samgh\u00e2disesa offence.
