ADHIKARANA-SAMATHA DHAMMA.
The venerable ones are pure herein. Therefore do they keep silence. Thus I understand.
Here endeth the recitation of the Adhikarana-samathas.

Venerable Sirs! Recited is the Introduction. Recited are the four Pârâgika Rules. Recited are the thirteen Samghâdisesa Rules. Recited are the two Aniyata Rules. Recited are the thirty Nissaggiya-Pâkittiya Rules.
Recited are the ninety-two Pâkittiya Rules. Recited are the four Pâtidesaniya Rules. Recited are the Sekhiya Rules.
Recited are the seven Adhikarana-samatha Rules.
So much (of the words) of the Blessed One, handed down in the Suttas, embraced in the Suttas, comes into recitation every half month. It behoveth all to train themselves according thereto in concord, in pleasantness, without dispute !
Here endeth the recitation of the Pâtimokkha for the use of the Bhikkhus.
