1.66

次釋名中：初釋妙字，次「又妙」下釋法及蓮華并經，皆以「妙」字冠之，以無非妙故爾。釋中亦約一題之內而四義存焉。「六喻敘用」者，如下文云「迹中斷權疑生實信為用，本中斷近疑生遠信為用」，故下文明本迹各十義不同。甘露是理，教是理門，故云「甘露門」也。

Next, within explaining the name: first it explains the character "wondrous"; next, from "furthermore, wondrous" downward, it explains "Dharma" and "Lotus Flower" together with "Sūtra," all prefixed with the character "wondrous," because there is nothing that is not wondrous. Within the explanation, it also relies on the single title wherein the four meanings reside. As for "the six metaphors narrate the function": as the text below says, "in the traces, severing doubts about the provisional and giving rise to faith in the real serves as the function; in the origin, severing doubts about the proximate and giving rise to faith in the distant serves as the function"; thus the text below explains that the ten meanings each for origin and traces are different. The sweet dew is the principle, and the teaching is the gateway to the principle; hence it is called the "gateway of sweet dew."
