從「如來已離三界火宅」下,三十行半,第二,頌合別譬。上頌開無不虛,今頌合則有。初三偈頌見諸眾生為生老等合見火譬。上頌見火譬文有三,今合亦三:初一偈,頌上如來能見,正由寂然閑居,能見五濁諸子也,即合聞有人言;次「今此三界」下,第二,一行半,頌上所見諸眾生為生老病死之所燒煮合第二所見火譬;「唯我一人」下,第三,半偈,頌上佛見此已便作是念,合驚入火宅也。

From "The Tathāgata has already departed from the burning house of the triple world" onwards, thirty and a half lines, is the second [section], versifying the synthesis of the particular parable. The versification of the opening above was entirely without non-fictiveness, whereas the versification of the synthesis here possesses it. The first three gāthās versify seeing all sentient beings subjected to birth, old age, and so forth, synthesizing the parable of seeing the fire. The text of the versification of the parable of seeing the fire above had three parts, and the synthesis here also has three: the first gāthā versifies the above [point of] the Tathāgata being able to see, precisely because he dwells peacefully in tranquility, he is able to see the children in the five turbidities, directly synthesizing "hearing someone say"; next, from "Now this triple world" onwards, the second [part], one and a half lines, versifies the above [point of] the seen sentient beings being burned and boiled by birth, old age, sickness, and death, synthesizing the second parable of the fire seen; from "I alone" onwards, the third [part], half a gāthā, versifies the above [point where] the Buddha, having seen this, then had this thought, synthesizing the alarmed entry into the burning house.
