四十，引律明犯，初約晝夜各分時限，遞明知說。故知露罪制在半日之內。問：小食時知，食後不說，復有罪不？答：約義以求，初夜中夜不說皆吉，並是方便；若論犯墮，須約明相；文中結墮，因前次第，且據中後夜耳。除下，次明所覆輕重。餘罪即下三篇。自下，三簡自他不同。疏云：覆他名重而治輕（但悔本罪），自覆名輕而治重（覆殘行別住，餘篇並先悔。）。又云：覆他有本，故重制令露，以戒淨故（釋上有本。）；自覆本壞，不須重制等。除尼下，四簡餘眾。覆尼同僧，此論輕罪，故簡除之。餘人即三眾也。

> The fourth: citing the Vinaya to clarify the offenses. First, dividing the time limits by day and night, it successively clarifies knowing and speaking. Thus one knows that disclosing the offense is prescribed within half a day. Question: If one knows at the time of the small meal (breakfast) and does not speak after the meal, is there an offense or not? Answer: Seeking by principle, not speaking in the first watch or middle watch of the night are all duṣkṛtas, and are all preparatory stages; if discussing committing a pāyattika, it must be determined by the dawn sign; the conclusion of pāyattika in the text follows the previous sequence, and temporarily relies on the middle and latter watches of the night. From "except..." onward, it next clarifies the gravity of what is concealed. "Remaining offenses" refers to the lower three categories. From "oneself..." onward, the third distinguishes the difference between oneself and others. The Commentary states: concealing others' \[offenses\] is called grave, yet its treatment is light (one only repents the root offense); concealing one's own is called light, yet its treatment is grave (one conceals a saṃghāvaśeṣa and practices mānāpya, while for the remaining categories one repents first). It also says: concealing others' has a basis, so it is strictly prohibited to make them disclose, because of the purity of the precepts (explaining "having a basis" above); in concealing one's own, the root is ruined, so there is no need for strict prohibition, and so forth. From "except nuns..." onward, the fourth distinguishes the other assemblies. Concealing \[offenses of\] nuns is identical to monks; here light offenses are discussed, hence they are excluded. "Other persons" refers to the \[remaining\] three assemblies.
