疏「次以四義喻語業」等者,即第三段,如次證四義。言「如來於一語言中具一切語言故」者,即證含攝義,亦是義引。即〈出現〉語業中第四善口天女喻,合云「當知如來亦復如是。於一音中出無量聲,隨諸眾生心樂差別,皆悉遍至,悉令得解。」釋曰:據其末句,可證遍至。今但取前,即含攝義。又〈妙嚴品〉云「如來於一語言中,演說無邊契經海。」亦即含攝義也。

On the Commentary's "Next, using four meanings to illustrate verbal karma" and so forth: this is the third section, which sequentially proves the four meanings. Regarding "because within a single utterance the Tathāgata possesses all languages": this corroborates the meaning of containment, and is also a paraphrase. That is, within verbal karma in the "Manifestation" Chapter, the fourth simile of the heavenly maiden of eloquent speech applies: "You should know that the Tathāgata is also just like this. Within a single sound he emits immeasurable voices, which, conforming to the varied predilections of sentient beings, all reach everywhere, causing them all to understand." Comment: According to its final sentence, it could corroborate reaching everywhere. Now, taking only the former, it is the meaning of containment. Furthermore, the "Wondrous Adornments" Chapter says: "The Tathāgata, within a single spoken word, / Proclaims an ocean of limitless sutras." This is also the meaning of containment.
