Regarding three or two persons: first, the identity is shown. From "since..." onward, the difference is revealed, first clarifying the forfeiture of robes. The statement "entirely different" is because, compared with the earlier four persons, it also involves a distinction with the Saṅgha. In accordance with the Karmavācanā, it states: "Listen, Venerables! I, the bhikṣu so-and-so, intentionally kept numerous surplus robes, committing a forfeiture and pāyattika; I now forfeit them to the Venerables." Next is forfeiting the offense. It requires its six rites, their order being the same as before. From "two..." onward, it clarifies the returning of robes. The two divisions are the four persons and the three or two persons. The procedure for three or two persons does not appear in the text. The Karmavācanā instructs that it should follow the procedure for forfeiting robes, which should state: "Venerables! If the Venerables permit me to return the robes of the bhikṣu so-and-so, I shall return them."
