大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 16.38

16.38

疏「第四別釋得名」等者，此中得名，各取前七字別義，例皆二義釋之，類前可知。此中釋名，即前對辯開合中五對之中，但除法喻一對，用餘四對。以法喻一對，華之一字已屬因門，故略無之。四對之中，望前有二異：一前則從寬至狹，故先明教義；今從狹至寬，故先明體用。又前從下釋上，故先明教義；今從上釋下，故後明教義。而前五對中，後明人中因果者，以因是華字，借喻中華，故在後明，前從寬至狹義已盡故。

Regarding the commentary from "Fourth, deriving the name by specific explanation" and so forth: in deriving the name here, each takes the specific meaning of the preceding seven characters, all explained by two meanings by analogy, which can be understood from the preceding. The explanation of the name here refers to the five pairs in the previous comparative discussion of opening and combining, merely excluding the pair of dharma and metaphor and using the remaining four pairs. Because in the pair of dharma and metaphor, the single character "flower" already belongs to the causal approach, it is omitted. Among the four pairs, compared to the preceding there are two differences: first, the former proceeded from the broad to the narrow, hence first clarifying teaching and meaning; now it proceeds from the narrow to the broad, hence first clarifying essence and function. Furthermore, the former explained from the lower to the higher, hence first clarifying teaching and meaning; now it explains from the higher to the lower, hence clarifying teaching and meaning later. And among the former five pairs, the causal and fruitional within persons was clarified later because the cause is the character "flower," borrowing the metaphor of the flower, and so was clarified later, as the meaning of proceeding from the broad to the narrow had already been exhausted previously.
