अथ खो अञ्ञतरो भिक्खु …पे… एकमन्तं निसिन्नो खो सो भिक्खु भगवन्तं एतदवोच: “साधु मे, भन्ते, भगवा सङ्खित्तेन धम्मं देसेतु …पे… आतापी पहितत्तो विहरेय्यन्”ति।

“Yathā kathaṁ pana tvaṁ, bhikkhu, mayā saṅkhittena bhāsitassa vitthārena atthaṁ ājānāsī”ti?
“But how do you see the detailed meaning of my brief statement?”
