Brethren Who Leave the Monastery

If a brother, who through his own fault leaves the monastery or is expelled, desires to return, let him first promise full amendment of the fault for which he left; and thus let him be received in the last place, that by this means his humility may be tried.

If he should leave again, let him be received even a third time, knowing that after this every means of return will be denied him.
