Doctrine and Covenants D&C 72:5
"the elders of the church in this part of my vineyard shall render an account of their stewardship unto the bishop"
Doctrine and Covenants D&C 69:5
"my servants who are abroad in the earth should send forth the accounts of their stewardships to the land of Zion"

Intra-D&C. Singular 'an account of their stewardship' against plural 'accounts of their stewardships'; the recipient differs — a local bishop against 'the land of Zion', which D&C 69:6 calls 'a seat and a place to receive and do all these things'. The exact run 'an account of their stewardship' stands at exactly one distinct frozen verse in the corpus (D&C 72:5), hence allusion rather than shared phrasing. The governing principle stands at D&C 72:3. Cross-section evidence quoted from raw — section 69 itself is W3-drained.
