At Sāvatthī.

Standing to one side, that deity spoke this verse in the Buddha’s presence:

“Cut how many? Drop how many?
Develop how many more?

When a mendicant slips how many chains

are they said to have crossed the flood?”

“Five to cut, five to drop,
and five more to develop.

When a mendicant slips five chains

they’re said to have crossed the flood.”
