They told the Buddha. Bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ.

“Well then, the Sangha should give that monk a purifying probation for those offenses. “Tena hi, bhikkhave, saṅgho tassa bhikkhuno tāsaṁ āpattīnaṁ suddhantaparivāsaṁ detu. And it should be given like this. Evañca pana, bhikkhave, dātabbo—That monk should approach the Sangha, arrange his upper robe over one shoulder, pay respect at the feet of the senior monks, squat on his heels, raise his joined palms, Tena, bhikkhave, bhikkhunā saṅghaṁ upasaṅkamitvā …pe… and say: evamassa vacanīyo—
