[1076] "True — I too know it: such a one is called a wise accuser (paṇḍitacodako). And I ask you another thing: what is it that is called an accusation (codanā)?" "One accuses concerning failure in virtue (sīlavipatti), and likewise concerning conduct and view; one accuses also concerning livelihood: for that reason it is called an accusation." The Further Verse Collection (Aparaṃ Gāthāsaṅgaṇikaṃ) is concluded. [Variant readings: 1. Po. reads "kati". 2. M. reads "vuccatīti".] Codanākaṇḍa (The Section on Accusation)
