The ancients carried their packs on their waists and wore conical bamboo hats on their heads. Arriving at the front of the monastery gate, they took off their hats. Entering the gate, they burned incense, with dharma words. Going before the Sangha hall, they untied their packs, washed their feet in a screened place, took out their robes, and put them on. Entering the hall, they burned incense and made three prostrations with fully spread mat before the sacred monk, their traveling companions bowing together with them. Having hung up their bags, they went to the Buddha hall, offered incense with dharma words, and made three prostrations with fully spread mat. Next, they burned incense in the earth spirits' hall and the patriarchs' hall, each with dharma words. Entering the abbot's quarters, they took possession of the room with dharma words. Subsequently, they opened the hall and offered felicitations to the emperor.
