[ed1] The introductory material here, identical to #69, is not included in the PTS Pali or in Woodward's translation. It is included in the translations of Bhk. Thanissaro and Bhk. Bodhi, and in the Pali from which they worked. Included or not there is an abruptness to the change to the next topic which suggests something missing even in this expanded version. What looks to be the case is that the material in the short version was originally another section of the previous sutta acting as an explanation of why the ten topics of talk are important.
