KULLAVAGGA.
V, 15, 1.

15. 1. Now at that time the Bhikkhus, when naked ?, saluted one another, and received salutes ; did service to one another, and received services; gave to one another, and accepted ; ate, both hard food and soft ; tasted; and drank.

'A man, O Bhikkhus, when naked, is not to give salutations, nor receive them ; is not to do services, nor to accept them 8; is not to give, nor to receive; is not to eat either hard or soft; is not to taste ; is not to drink. Whosoever does so, shall be guilty of a dukkata.'
16. 1. Now at that time the Bhikkhus in the bathroom put the robes down on the ground, and the robes became dirty.

In Mahavagga I, 35, 13, services are to be rendered to a Bhikkhu who is in the bath. This is permitted by 16. 2 below.
