But if (which God forbid) the whole community should agree to choose a person who will acquiesce in their vices\, and if those vices somehow become known to the Bishop to whose diocese the place belongs\, or to the Abbots\, Abbesses or the faithful of the vicinity\, let them prevent the success of this conspiracy of the wicked\, and set a worthy steward over the house of God. They may be sure that they will receive a good reward for this action if they do it with a pure intention and out of zeal for God; as\, on the contrary\, they will sin if they fail to do it.

No other monk should associate or converse with them at all. The monk will work alone at the tasks assigned to them\, living continually in sorrow and penance\, pondering that fearful judgement of the Apostle: “Such a man is handed over for the destruction of his flesh that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord” (1 Cor. 5:5). Let them take their food alone in an amount and at a time the abbot considers appropriate for them. They should not be blessed by anyone passing by\, nor should the food that is given them be blessed.
