「如三世諸佛」此下五行半，是頌釋迦中第四義頌歎法希有，長行所無者也，不為下譬作本也。今就此五行半中自有三段：第一有一偈，先出所歎之法也，即是一乘教。第二從「諸佛興出世」有兩偈，據諸難顯歎法希有之相。第三有二行半，還據優曇華譬結歎也。又解云：就中有二：初一偈出所歎之法，後四行半正歎法。就歎法中有三：初二偈法說，次一偈譬說，後一偈半合譬也。

> From "Just like the Buddhas of the three times" onwards, the five and a half verses are the verse-section praising the rarity of the Dharma, which is the fourth topic within \[the section on\] Śākya; it is absent from the prose and does not serve as a basis for the parables below. Now, within these five and a half verses there are naturally three sections: first, there is one verse which first brings out the Dharma being praised, which is the teaching of the One Vehicle. Second, from "When Buddhas appear in the world" there are two verses which, based on various difficulties, reveal the marks of the Dharma's rarity being praised. Third, there are two and a half verses which, returning to the parable of the udumbara blossom, conclude the praise. Another explanation says: within this there are two: the first verse brings out the Dharma being praised, and the latter four and a half verses directly praise the Dharma. Within the praise of the Dharma there are three: the first two verses are an exposition by dharma, the next one verse is an exposition by parable, and the latter one and a half verses are the application of the parable.
