3.158

大王吾今下,第七勸受持此經。文有三:初明付囑諸國王;二列十六國;如是一切下,第三勸受持。此經但明十七國,那云十六?答:《大雲經》有十六大國也。

From 'Great King! I now' onward is the seventh [section], encouraging the accepting and upholding of this sūtra. The text has three parts: first, explaining the entrustment to all the kings; second, listing the sixteen states; from 'all such' onward, third, encouraging acceptance and upholding. This sūtra mentions only seventeen states; why does it say sixteen? Answer: The Mahāmegha Sūtra speaks of sixteen great states.
