若比丘獨與女人露地坐者波逸提　此滿足戒本文有四句。一犯人。二犯境。三犯處。四結罪。初句可知。言獨者。一女人一比丘。第二言女人者。是犯境。律云。人女有知命根不斷。第三言露地者。是犯處。謂在見聞屏處。相去申手內坐。故十律云。相去一文犯。第四言波逸提者。是謂違犯句。故律云。獨與女坐無第三人為證。隨起還坐隨爾數墮。相去一尋內犯提。一尋半犯吉。二尋已外無犯。十云。相去一文提。丈五吉。二丈不犯。辨相開緣並同前戒不犯。

> "If a bhikṣu sits alone with a woman in an open place, it is a prāyaścittika." The complete text of this precept contains four clauses: first, the offender; second, the object of the offense; third, the locus of the offense; fourth, establishing the penalty. The first clause is understood. Regarding "alone": one woman and one bhikṣu. Second, regarding "woman": this is the object of the offense. The Vinaya says, "A human woman who has awareness and whose life-faculty has not been severed." Third, regarding "open place": this is the locus of the offense, meaning a place screened from sight and hearing, sitting within the reach of each other's outstretched hand; hence the Ten Recitations Vinaya says, "Sitting within one fathom of each other constitutes an offense." Fourth, regarding "it is a prāyaścittika": this is the clause establishing the violation; hence the Vinaya says, "Sitting alone with a woman without a third person as a witness: each time he stands up and sits down again, he incurs that many downfalls. If they are within one fathom of each other, he commits a prāyaścittika; if at one and a half fathoms, he commits a duṣkṛta; beyond two fathoms, there is no offense." The Ten Recitations Vinaya says, "A distance of one fathom is a prāyaścittika; fifteen feet is a duṣkṛta; twenty feet is no offense." The marks of non-offense and exceptions are all the same as the preceding precept.
