法華經義記 3.20

3.20

「舍利弗重白佛言唯願說之唯願說之」，此下是第三段第二有利根必信故請說，此下以三段例皆有二長行與偈為二也。今請意言此會中皆是利根堪聞佛說，云何言驚疑耶？

“Śāriputra addressed the Buddha once again, saying: ‘We only pray that you speak it! We only pray that you speak it!’” From here down is the third section, the second request made because those of sharp faculties will certainly believe; from here down, by analogy with the three sections, all have two parts: prose and verse. The intention of the request here means: in this assembly all have sharp faculties and are capable of hearing the Buddha’s exposition; how could one say they would be astonished and doubtful?
