Dear friends,

correction:

YP: "To him, sir, my alms has been given at the four doors... And then approached the boudoir and said this to me: 'Alms is given to the deity indeed, alms is not given to us.'"

YP: diiyati (passive of dadaati) is given. diiyittha [Parokkhaa Attanopada 3rd Person Singular]


metta,
Yong Peng.
