大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 33.3

33.3

Regarding the commentary's "Furthermore, these five verses" and what follows, the second part combines the preceding four similes. Relying on this meaning, the ten verses directly answer, and can also be divided into four: first, one verse on all dharmas having no substantial nature presents the thesis and reason in terms of Dharma; next, four verses present the four matching similes; third, there are four verses that separately combine with the preceding similes; fourth, the final verse concludes the preceding meaning. Thus the five parts of an argument are complete.
