八雜明諸相。《薩婆多》：若病比丘須七日藥，自無淨人，求倩難得，應自從淨人手受，從比丘口受已，隨著一處，七日內自取食之。若作口法竟，一日乃至五日，淨人來觸，或更以餘不受藥來雜，應加手、口二受，復得七日服。若至六目已去，淨人觸、餘藥雜，並不得加。若藥眾多，不知何者是本藥，應更手受、口受，然後服之。若病重不能口受，亦直爾得服。設看病比丘，手受、口受，亦成受法，當稱病比丘名而受。

Eighth, miscellaneous clarifications on the various marks. The *Sarvāstivāda[-vinaya-vibhāṣā]* says: If a sick bhikṣu requires seven-day medicine, has no kappiyakāraka himself, and finds it difficult to seek or hire one, he should himself accept it by hand from a kappiyakāraka and, having accepted it verbally from a bhikṣu, place it in one spot and take and eat it himself within seven days. If, after performing the verbal formula, from one day up to five days, a kappiyakāraka comes and touches it, or he further mixes in other unreceived medicines, he should repeat both the hand acceptance and the verbal acceptance, and again obtain [permission to] take it for seven days. If it has reached six days or more, and a kappiyakāraka touches it or other medicine is mixed in, neither [acceptance] may be repeated. If the medicines are numerous and he does not know which is the original medicine, he should once more receive it by hand and receive it verbally, and only then take it. If his illness is grave and he cannot receive it verbally, he may also simply take it directly. Supposing a bhikṣu nursing the sick receives it by hand and receives it verbally, this also constitutes the procedure of receipt; he must pronounce the sick bhikṣu's name and receive it.
