Then on that occasion Ven. Revata sent a robe-cloth in a certain monk’s hand to Ven. Sāriputta, (saying,) “Give this robe-cloth to the elder.”

Then, while on the road, the monk took the robe-cloth on trust in Ven. Revata.

Then Ven. Revata, meeting Ven. Sāriputta, asked him, “Venerable sir, I sent the elder a robe-cloth. Did you get it?”

Nāhantaṁ āvuso cīvaraṁ passāmīti.

“Friend, I didn’t see that robe-cloth.”

athakho āyasmā revato taṁ bhikkhuṁ etadavoca ahaṁ Āvuso āyasmato hatthe therassa cīvaraṁ pāhesiṁ kahantaṁ cīvaranti.

Then Ven. Revata said to the monk, “Friend, I sent a robe in the venerable one’s (your) hand to the elder. Where is it?”

Ahaṁ bhante āyasmato vissāsā taṁ cīvaraṁ aggahesinti.

Notes

1.
The above two cases are identical: The phrase “while on the road,” applies to both statements in both cases. The only difference is that the order of the sentences is reversed. This may be for the purpose of matching the pattern of the following cases, to make it easier to memorize, or more enjoyable to chant.
