Suppose a monk comes to a householder to beg food, and the said householder offers him three cakes and makes a request as follows : "Oh long-lived monk ! You take one cake yourself and offer the other two to some fellow monks." The monk accepts the cakes, returns to his lodge and looks for two fellow monks. If he finds them, he gives them the two cakes; but if he does not, then, he neither takes the two cakes himself, nor gives them to others, but finds a safe, secluded, clean, life-free and appropriate spot, wipes it clean and deposits the cakes there. The above has to be repeated for four, five, till ten cakes. Mind that in all the cases, only one cake is to be taken by him, and the remaining ones till nine are to be given to fellow monks. The rest as aforesaid. णिग्गंथं च णं गाहावइकुलं जाव... केइ दोहिं पडिग्गहेहिं उवणिमंतेज्जा - एगं आउसो ! अप्पणा पडिभुंजाहि एवं थेराणं दलयाहि । से य तं पडिग्गहेज्जा तहेव जाव...तं णो अप्पणा परिभुंजेज्जा णो अण्णेसिं दावए । सेसं तं चैव जाव... परिट्ठावेयव्वे सिया । एवं जाव... दसहिं पडिग्गहेहिं एवं जहा पडिग्गहेहिं एवं जहा पडिग्गहवत्तव्वया भणिया एवं गोच्छयरयहरणचोलपट्टग कंवललट्ठिसंथा रगबत्तव्वया य भाणियव्वा जाव... दसहिं संथारएहिं उवणिमंत्तेज्जा जाव... परिट्ठावेयव्वे सिया ।
