四分律行事鈔資持記 1.1241

1.1241

五德對略中，初文為二，初標略緣。時所有者，略舉四種。當下，示略法，初明先廣。已下，明次略。文略再說，疏云：對五德有二略，二說、一說也。（人云無再說，非。）受兩人者，縱受三人，理亦無損，但不得至四耳。

In the abbreviated declaration before the [monks of] five virtues, the first passage is twofold: first, it marks the conditions for abbreviation. 'What exists at the time' briefly mentions four kinds. 'Directly,' below, demonstrates the abbreviated rite: first it clarifies the extensive one beforehand; 'already,' below, clarifies the subsequent abbreviated one. The text omits speaking twice; the Commentary says: 'Before the five virtues, there are two abbreviations: speaking twice, and speaking once.' (Those who say there is no speaking twice are mistaken.) Receiving two persons: even if receiving three persons, in principle there is no harm; one just must not reach four.
