"If the mentor wishes to enter the village for alms, give him his lower robe, receiving the spare lower robe (he is wearing) from him in return. Give him his waistband; give him his upper and outer robe, arranged so that the upper robe forms a lining for the outer one. Having rinsed out the bowl, give it to him while it is still wet. If the mentor desires an attendant, one should put on one's lower robe so as to cover the three circles all around. Having put on the waistband, having arranged the upper robe as a lining for the outer one and having put them on, having fastened the fastener, having washed and taken a bowl, be the mentor's attendant. Do not walk too far behind him; do not walk too close. Receive the contents of the mentor's bowl. Do not interrupt the mentor when he is speaking. If he is bordering on an offense, one should stop him."
