First is the exception for truly attaining it and seeking another to bear witness; the text restricts it to having the same intent, and furthermore requires a fully ordained monk. 'Joking' means truly having no intent to deceive; 'in haste' means speech that is not clear; 'speaking in secret' means not letting others hear; 'mistaken speech' means the words not matching one's intent. The above lists the marks. 'All...' below judges the offense. The first sentence universally concludes the previous five. 'Yet...' below specifically distinguishes the middle three, because the first and last two incur no offense.
