1. [The whole of the last chapter is 'repeated in the case of a Bhikkhu who,
having committed offences, becomes a Sâmanera, goes out of his mind, or becomes
weak in his mind 1, and the text then goes on] 'He becomes diseased in his
sensations. His offences are some of them concealed, some not concealed. Of some
offences he is aware, of some he is not aware. Some offences he recollects, some
he does not recollect. Of some offences he is certain, of some he is not
certain. Those offences of which he was not certain, those he conceals; those
offences of which he was certain, those he does not conceal. Then he becomes
diseased in his sensations. When he has recovered power over his sensations,
those offences of which he previously had been certain and had concealed, of
those he is afterwards still certain, but does not conceal them; and those
offences of which he previously had been
p. 427
uncertain and had not concealed, of those he became certain but did not conceal
them. Those offences of which he previously had been certain and had concealed,
of those he was afterwards still certain and did not conceal while those
offences of which he previously had been uncertain, and had not concealed, of
those offences he afterwards became certain and did conceal them. Those offences
of which previously he had been certain, and had concealed, of those offences he
was afterwards still certain and did conceal them; while those offences of which
he previously had been uncertain and had not concealed, of those offences he
afterwards became certain, and did not conceal them. Those offences of which he
previously had been certain, and had concealed them, of those offences he was
afterwards still certain and did conceal them; whilst those offences of which he
previously had been uncertain and did not conceal them, of those offences he
afterwards became certain and did conceal them,--on that Bhikkhu, O Bhikkhus,
[the same penalty is to be imposed. as in chapter 29, section 1, paragraph 4.]'

Here end the hundred cases 1 in which a Mânatta (is to be imposed after a change
of state in the guilty Bhikkhu).
Footnotes
426:1 See above, chap. 27, and Mahâvagga II, 22, 3; IX, 4, 7.
427:1 The hundred cases are made up thus: Chap. 29, §§ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 contain
each of them four cases (after our correction of 29. 2); so that chap. 29 gives
altogether twenty cases. Then in chap. 30, each of these twenty cases is
repeated in the four other cases there given; so that chap. 30 gives altogether
eighty cases. Of these eighty cases, as usual, at the end of a repetition, the
last (four cases) are set out in full.
