________________ 38 CORRECT BEHAVIOR DV (fig. 106) has, in its upper register, a monk seated, toward who bows a standing monk, with a third monk at the right walking away. The subject is probably a junior monk first asking his superior what he is to do (stanza 9) and then turning away to do it (stanza 10). In the lower register the superior is seated at the left, inspecting a bowl and a broom-probably also the pot on the ground-while a junior leans over to watch. The subject is inspection of monk's articles (stanza 23). A third monk squats as though in confession (stanzas 41-42, 49-50).
