大般涅槃經集解 2.85

2.85

案僧宗曰：尼者，此言女也。所列科例，與上同也。明駿案：此列有九事，一稱族、二稱位、三列名、四舉數、五歎權德、六敘憂悲、七歎實德、八敘來事、九蕳尊勝，故曰位階十地。

Sengzong comments: 'Ni' here means woman. The categories and examples listed are the same as above. Mingjun notes: This listing has nine items: first, stating their clan; second, stating their rank; third, listing their names; fourth, citing their number; fifth, praising their provisional virtues; sixth, recounting their grief and sorrow; seventh, praising their real virtues; eighth, recounting their arrival; ninth, selecting their supreme superiority, hence it says their stage corresponds to the ten grounds.
