[1883] [Sakavādin:] "May sexual intercourse (methuna-dhamma) be engaged in with a common purpose (ekādhippāya)?"
[Paravādin:] "Yes."
[Sakavādin:] "With a common purpose may a living being be killed, may what is not given be taken, may falsehood be spoken, may divisive speech be spoken, may harsh speech be spoken, may idle chatter be prattled, may housebreaking be committed, may plunder be carried off, may the burglary of a single house be committed, may one lie in wait on the highway, may another's wife be resorted to, may the sacking of a village be perpetrated, may the sacking of a market town be perpetrated?"
[Paravādin:] "It should not be said thus. …"
