法華文句記 4.22

4.22

前以五時歷法用等三，但成五時各有法用等三，令知法華三重俱妙，故以五味歷於諸經，以部對部而辨麁妙，則前六門並須五味，使一切教無非方法等三，不無麁妙各別，及以一切俱妙。況將諸經十雙遍歷五味，門戶別故不須此責。如《玄義》中科科五味，若無此五則今一科一句部不異前，故處處明之。

Previously, running through the three—the dharma-function and so forth—by means of the five periods merely accomplished that each of the five periods has the three, the dharma-function and so forth, causing one to know that all three tiers are wondrous in the Lotus. Hence, running through the various sūtras by means of the five flavors, confronting text with text to distinguish the coarse and the wondrous, then the preceding six gates must all employ the five flavors, causing all teachings to be nothing other than the three, method and so forth, not lacking the separate distinction between coarse and wondrous, as well as all being wondrous. How much more so running the ten pairs of the various sūtras completely through the five flavors! Because the doorways are distinct, this reproof is unnecessary. Just as section by section in the Profound Meaning has the five flavors, if these five were absent, then in the present single section and single phrase, the textual section would not differ from before; therefore, it is clarified everywhere.
