for women.”\nThe third section for recitation is finished.\nThe tenth chapter on nuns is finished.\nIn this chapter there are one hundred topics.\nThis is the summary:\n“Gotamī asked for the going forth,\nThe Buddha did not allow it;\nKapilavatthu to Vesāli,\nDid the Leader go.\nAt the gatehouse covered in dust,\nDeclared to Ānanda;\nHe asked wisely about capability,\nAbout mother and upbringing.\nOne hundred years and that very day,\nWithout monks, seeking;\nInvitation, heavy offense,\nTwo years, not abusing.\nAnd may not, eight principles,\nPracticing all one’s life;\nReceiving the important principles,\nThat was her ordination.\nA thousand years, just five,\nThieves, whiteheads;\nRed rot, with similes,\nThus the true Teaching was injured.\nNot to mention he would make a dyke,\nAgain he stabilized the true Teaching;\nTo ordain, venerable,\nBow down according to seniority.\nThey will not, how then,\nCommon, not in common;\nInstruction, and Monastic Code,\nWho, nunnery.\nAnd they do not know, he told,\nAnd did not do, with monks;\nTo receive by monks,\nReceiving by nuns.\nHe told, procedure by monks,\nThey complained, or with nuns;\nTo tell, and arguing,\nHaving determined, and with Uppalā.\nAt Sāvatthī, muddy water,\nNon-respect, body, and thigh;\nAnd genitals, indecent speech,\nThe group associated inappropriately.\nNon-respect, penalty,\nSo again the nuns;\nAnd restriction, instruction,\nIs it allowable, he set out wandering.\nIgnorant, reason, investigation,\nInstruction, Sangha, with five;\nTwo or three, they did not agree,\nIgnorant ones, sick, departing.\nForest-dweller, without telling,\nAnd they did not return;\nLong, and split bamboo, leather,\nFabric, and interlaced, rolled up;\nCloth, and interlaced, and rolled up,\nAnd interlaced string, rolled up.\nBone, cow’s jaw bone,\nHand, back of hand, so foot;\nThigh, face, gums,\nOintment, applied creams, powdered.\nThey applied, body cosmetics,\nFacial cosmetics, so both;\nEye cosmetics, facial mark, staring,\nWith exposed to view, and with dancing.\nSex worker, bar, slaughterhouse,\nShop, loan, trade;\nMale and female slaves, male servants,\nFemale servants, they would attend on.\nAnimals, greens,\nThey wore felt;\nBlue, yellow, red,\nMagenta, and black robes.\nOrange and beige,\nSingle piece, and just long;\nFloral, fruit, and close-fitting jacket,\nAnd lodh tree, they wore.\nNun, of a trainee nun,\nOf a novice nun, after death;\nThe requisites are handed back,\nJust the nuns are the owners.\nOf a monk, of a novice monk,\nOf a lay follower, a female lay follower;\nAnd the requisites of others,\nIt should be handed back, the monks are the owners.\nFemale wrestler, fetus, the bottom of the bowl,\nGenitals, and with requisite;\nAbundance, greater,\nStored up requisites.\nAs above for the monks,\nSo it should be done for the nuns;\nDwelling, menstruating,\nIt was stained, and menstruation pads.\nThey snapped, and all the times,\nAlso those without genitals were seen;\nGenitals, and just blood,\nJust so continuous blood.\nContinuous pad, incontinent,\nProlapse, without sexual organs;\nAnd manlike, fistula,\nAnd also gynandromorph.\nHaving set out without genitals etc.,\nAs far as gynandromorph;\nThis is according to the repetition above,\nLeprosy, abscesses, and mild leprosy.\nTuberculosis and epilepsy, are you human,\nAre you a woman, and are you free;\nDebtless, not employed by the king,\nAnd permitted, twenty.\nAnd full set, what name,\nWhat is the name of your mentor;\nOf the twenty-four obstacles,\nHaving asked, ordination.\nThey were embarrassed, not instructed,\nAnd just so in the midst of the Sangha;\nChoosing a preceptor, outer robe,\nUpper robe, sarong.\nChest wrap, and bathing robe,\nHaving pointed out, should send away;\nIgnorant ones, not appointed,\nShe should ask, interval on asking.\nOrdained on one side,\nAgain so with the Sangha of monks;\nTime, season, and date,\nJointly, three supports.\nEight things not to be done,\nThe right time, everywhere, just eight;\nThe nuns did not invite,\nAnd just so the Sangha of monks.\nRacket, before the meal,\nAnd too late, racket;\nObservance-day ceremony, invitation ceremony,\nDirection, instruction.\nPermission, accused, they reminded,\nWas prohibited by the Great Sage;\nIn that way a monk to a nun,\nWas allowed by the Great Sage.\nVehicle, sick, and pulled,\nJolted around in a vehicle, Aḍḍhakāsī;\nMonk, trainee nun, novice monk,\nAnd novice nun, with an ignorant one.\nIn the wilderness, with a lay follower,\nStorehouse, nunnery;\nNot sufficient, building work,\nPregnant, by herself.\nAnd the same building, heavy offense,\nAnd verbally renounced, joined;\nAnd bowing down, and hair,\nAnd nails, treating sores.\nCross-legged, and sick,\nFeces, with bath powder, scented;\nIn a sauna, against the stream,\nAway from a ford, and with men.\nMahāgotamī asked,\nAnd so did Ānanda wisely;\nThere are four assemblies,\nGoing forth in the instruction of the Victor.\nFor the purpose of seeing the urgency,\nAnd for the purpose of growth in the true Teaching;\nLike medicine for the sick,\nSo it was taught by the Buddha.\nThus trained in the true Teaching,\nOther women too;\nThey go to where there is no death,\nHaving gone there, they do not sorrow.”\nThe chapter on nuns is
