第十辯藏。文有四別,謂徵、釋、結、歎。釋相中四:初總舉體用雙照事理,二種實相名深智慧。二「說一品」下顯能廣演。三「或一日」下明長時演,二:先正明、後徵釋。以是十藏之終故,說具前十藏,近接總持,復舉陀羅尼門。四「其說法」下彰辯之德,亦有正明、徵釋,可知。四歎勝中文有十句,義該七辯:一無窮盡是豐義味辯,一一句中出多事理故。二即捷辯,欲言即言,無分段故。三無疎謬辯,不以邪錯間深理故。四無斷辯,相續連環故。五應辯,應時應機,無變異故。六迅辯,迅若懸河,無隔礙故。已下四句,即一切世間最上妙辯。此辯有五德:一甚深如雷,即第八句;二清徹遠聞故不退轉,即第七句;三其聲哀雅如迦陵頻伽,故能普入一切佛法,即第十句;四能令眾生入心敬愛;五其有聞者歡喜無厭故,難可得入。上二即第九句。上來第三依章別釋竟。

Tenth, the treasury of eloquence. The text has four distinct parts, namely: inquiring, explaining, concluding, and praising. Within the explanation of the marks, there are four: First, generally presenting the essence and function, simultaneously illumining phenomena and noumenon; the two kinds of real mark are termed profound wisdom. Second, from "speaking one chapter" onward, showing the ability to explain broadly. Third, from "or for one day" onward, clarifying explanation over a long period, which has two: first correctly clarifying, and then inquiring and explaining. Because this is the end of the ten treasuries, it says it is endowed with the preceding ten treasuries; closely connecting to dhāraṇī, it further adduces the gate of dhāraṇī. Fourth, from "its expounding the Dharma" onward, revealing the virtues of eloquence, which also has correct clarification, inquiring, and explaining, as can be known. Fourth, in praising the superior qualities, the text has ten phrases, whose meaning encompasses seven eloquences: 1. Inexhaustible is the eloquence rich in meaning and flavour, because within each phrase it produces many phenomena and noumena. 2. Prompt eloquence, speaking as soon as one wishes to speak, without fragmentation. 3. Eloquence free of error, because it does not allow erroneous mistakes to interrupt the profound truth. 4. Uninterrupted eloquence, because it is continuous like an unbroken ring. 5. Responsive eloquence, responding to the time and responding to the capacities, without variation. 6. Rapid eloquence, rapid like a cascading river, without hindrance. The four phrases below this are the supreme and wondrous eloquence in all worlds. This eloquence has five virtues: 1. Profound like thunder, which is the eighth phrase; 2. Clear, penetrating, and heard from afar so that [beings] do not retrogress, which is the seventh phrase; 3. Its voice is sorrowfully elegant like a kalaviṅka, so that it can universally enter all Buddhadharmas, which is the tenth phrase; 4. Able to cause sentient beings to revere and love it in their hearts; 5. Those who hear it rejoice without satiation, hence it is difficult to enter. The two above are the ninth phrase. The third part above, explaining each according to the section, is concluded.
