四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 2.65

2.65

第二盜戒。性戒，含輕重也。性重之中，盜是難護。故諸部明述，餘戒約略總述而已；及論此戒，各並三卷五卷述之。必善加披括，方能免患。有人別摽此盜，用入私鈔，抑亦勸誡之意也。終須遍覽，故銓次列之。

Second, the precept against stealing. It is a natural precept, encompassing both minor and grave [offenses]. Among naturally grave offenses, stealing is difficult to guard against. Therefore, in the expositions of the various schools, other precepts are merely summarized in brief; but when discussing this precept, they each expound upon it in three or five fascicles. One must carefully examine and unpack it to be able to avoid faults. Some people have separately extracted this [section on] stealing to include in their private compilations, which also carries the intent of admonition. Ultimately, one must peruse it comprehensively, and therefore it is arranged and listed in order.
