2.163
律不犯中,開緣如上。若彼人不肯與衣者,餘比丘當語言:「佛有教,為淨故與,應還他物。」若又不與,自往語言:「佛教比丘,作淨故與。汝不還我者,此物應與僧塔和尚知識,及本施主。」不欲令失彼信施故。
Among the non-offenses in the Vinaya, exceptions are as above. If that person refuses to give the robe, other bhikṣus should say to him: 'The Buddha has instructed that it was given to you for the sake of purification; you should return the other's property.' If he still does not give it, one personally goes and says to him: 'The Buddha taught bhikṣus to give it for the sake of making it pure. If you do not return it to me, this item should be given to the saṃgha, a stūpa, an upādhyāya, a spiritual friend, or the original donor.' This is because one does not wish to cause that faithful donor to lose his gift of faith.
