四分律行事鈔資持記 2.727

2.727

犯緣中。四過分者，此有三位。一純語得六反，二三反語，六反默，齊九反。（二默當一語，戒本同此相。）三純默，齊十二反；過三分齊，犯。默索者，《善見》云：口不語，渙坐不坐，與食不受，說法呪願，一切不得；若言何因至此？答言居居自知。

In the conditions of the offense: regarding the fourth, "excessive," there are three grades. (1) Purely speaking: one gets six turns. (2) Speaking three turns and being silent six turns, totaling nine turns. (Two silences equal one speech; the Prātimokṣa accords with this mark.) (3) Purely silent, totaling twelve turns; exceeding these three limits constitutes an offense. Demanding in silence: the Samantapāsādikā says: the mouth does not speak; he refuses to sit when offered a seat, does not accept when offered food, and does not preach the Dharma or recite blessings at all; if asked, "Why have you come here?", he replies: "Householder, you yourself know."
