1.13

次、別名者。一、梵云「僧伽梨」，此云「雜碎衣」（條相多故），從用則名「入王宮聚落衣」（乞食、說法時時著）。二、欝多羅僧，名「中價衣」（謂財直當二衣之間），從用名「入眾衣」（禮誦、齋講時著）。三、安陀會，名「下衣」（最居下故，或下著故），從用名「院內道行雜作衣」（入聚、隨眾則不得著）。若從相者，即五條、七條、九條，乃至二十五條等。義翻多別，且提一二。

Next, the specific names. First, in Sanskrit it is called saṅghāṭī, which here translates as "robe of many pieces" (because its strips and phases are numerous); according to its use it is called the "robe for entering royal palaces and villages" (worn at times of begging for food and preaching the Dharma). Second, the uttarāsaṅga is called the "robe of intermediate value" (meaning its material value falls between the other two robes); according to its use it is called the "robe for entering the assembly" (worn when worshipping, chanting, participating in vegetarian feasts, and attending lectures). Third, the antarvāsaka is called the "lower robe" (because it is positioned lowest, or worn underneath); according to its use it is called the "robe for walking the paths and doing various chores within the monastery" (one is not permitted to wear it when entering a village or joining the assembly). If considered according to form, they are five strips, seven strips, nine strips, up to twenty-five strips, and so forth. Their semantic translations are varied; here I have raised just one or two.
