大方廣佛華嚴經疏 44.6

44.6

Second, from 'O sons of the Buddha, just as a wheel-turning [king]' onward presents the similes. It illustrates the above six matters, with the text slightly out of sequence: first, it illustrates what kind of body it depends on; second, from 'that wheel-turning' onward illustrates what kind of seat it depends on; third, from 'grown up' onward illustrates what kind of marks it depends on; fourth, from 'taking the four great [oceans]' onward illustrates what station attained it depends on. The king illustrates the true body; the hand illustrates the response body; the vase illustrates the white curl (ūrṇā); the water illustrates the light. There should be the third, what kind of retinue it depends on, namely the civil and military ministers acting as assistants. Fifth, from 'is able to' onward explains what places of emission it depends on.
