偈中亦有十一。初中云平等者，化儀同故。又但以世俗文字數故說有三世，非謂如來有去來今。二中，初句廣大，次句無比，次句清淨。然古德明通，有六義：一廣，謂總法界為身故；二遍，全遍一塵至十方故；三妙，色即無色，無色之色故；四勝，無有比故；五益，利物無涯故；六用，光破闇故。三中，前半即慈雲，上句果大、下句因深。一切佛法依慈悲，慈悲又依方便立，俱稱深廣，故致海言。次句即普覆也。次後六偈，文並可知。十中，初二句即前善根少功德者，以少況多，彰因為勝；次句即人天受生，故離三惡怖。十一中，初句即能開之法，是寂滅智通；次二句由普應故，疑皆斷也。

> In the verses, there are also eleven.  
> In the first, stating 'equal': because the manner of transformation is the same. Furthermore, it is only by worldly words and numbers that the three periods of time are spoken of; it does not mean that the Tathāgata has past, future, or present.  
> In the second: the first line is vast; the next line is peerless; the next line is pure. Now, ancient worthies explained the penetrations with six meanings: first, vast, meaning taking the entire dharmadhātu as the body; second, pervasive, fully pervading from a single dust mote to the ten directions; third, wondrous, form being identical with non-form, the form of non-form; fourth, supreme, having no comparison; fifth, beneficial, benefiting beings boundlessly; sixth, functional, light shattering darkness.  
> In the third: the first half is the cloud of compassion: the upper line is the greatness of the fruit; the lower line is the depth of the cause. All Buddha-dharmas rely on compassion, and compassion again relies on expedient means; both are described as deep and vast, hence the word 'ocean' is used. The next line is universal covering.  
> The next six verses can all be understood from their texts.  
> In the tenth: the first two lines refer to the previous 'wholesome roots with little merit,' using the little to illustrate the much, highlighting the cause as supreme; the next line is rebirth among humans and devas, hence leaving the terrors of the three evil destinies.  
> In the eleventh: the first line is the dharma that can reveal, which is the penetration of quiescent wisdom; the next two lines: because of universal response, all doubts are severed.
