贊曰:下別顯德高,有十三句。舊有九句,無新經四,已到彼岸、說法界門、知有情根、自在問答。餘文少異,義意多同。十三句中,合為六對。初二證真說真德、次二句說俗證俗德、次二句利他自利德、次三句破惡契善德、次二句知根善化德、後二句有智能論德。要先證真,方能達俗。既知此已,便能二利。利益之門,無過破惡而契於善、禍滅福臻,遂能知根善化,道圓智上、辨迅詞高。有智能論,誠深頗敵。此中四句,初二句證真說真、後二句說俗證俗。深入法門,能證真故;善能辨說,能說真故。住妙辨才,能說俗故;覺慧無礙,能證俗故。

Commentary: Below, distinctly revealing his exalted virtues, there are thirteen clauses. The old [translation] had nine clauses, lacking four from the new sūtra: having arrived at the other shore, expounding the gate of the dharmadhātu, knowing the faculties of sentient beings, and questioning and answering with mastery. The remaining text differs slightly, but the doctrinal meaning is largely the same. Among these thirteen clauses, they are grouped into six pairs: the first two are the virtues of realizing the ultimate and expounding the ultimate; the next two clauses are the virtues of expounding the conventional and realizing the conventional; the next two clauses are the virtues of benefiting others and benefiting oneself; the next three clauses are the virtues of subduing evil and according with good; the next two clauses are the virtues of knowing faculties and skilfully transforming [others]; the last two clauses are the virtues of possessing wisdom and being able to debate. One must first realize the ultimate before one can penetrate the conventional. Having understood this, one is then able to achieve both benefits. In the gateway of benefiting, none exceeds subduing evil and according with good, so that misfortune is eradicated and blessings arrive; subsequently, one is able to know faculties and skilfully transform [others], with the path perfected and wisdom supreme, and with swift eloquence and lofty words. Possessing wisdom and being able to debate, he is truly a profound and formidable adversary. Among these [four] clauses here, the first two clauses realize the ultimate and expound the ultimate, and the latter two clauses expound the conventional and realize the conventional. "Profoundly entered the dharmaparyāya" is because he can realize the ultimate; "skilful in eloquent exposition" is because he can expound the ultimate. "Abiding in exquisite eloquence" is because he can expound the conventional; "unhindered awakening and wisdom" is because he can realize the conventional.
