從「設以百舌」下是第四絕言讚,初三行半是絕言讚、次二行是絕心讚。而有三番者,或應擬三身絕言也。一人百頭,頭有百口,口有百舌,住壽千劫,讚生身佛相好功德不能得盡。一人千頭,頭有千口,口有千舌,住壽萬劫,讚尊特身佛相好功德不能得盡。大地及天毛滴其水,一切有心不能知法性身佛相好功德,是故絕言絕心歎。
From "Even with a hundred tongues" downward is the fourth, praise beyond words: the first three and a half lines are praise beyond words; the next two lines are praise beyond mind. That there are three turns perhaps corresponds to the three bodies being beyond words. If one person had a hundred heads, each head having a hundred mouths, each mouth having a hundred tongues, and lived for a thousand kalpas, in praising the merits of the marks and signs of the Buddha of the birth-body he could not exhaust them. If one person had a thousand heads, each head having a thousand mouths, each mouth having a thousand tongues, and lived for ten thousand kalpas, in praising the merits of the marks and signs of the Buddha of the majestic and distinct body he could not exhaust them. Even if one dipped water with hair[-tips] throughout the great earth and the heavens, no one possessing a mind could know the merits of the marks and signs of the Buddha of the dharmatā-body; therefore it is praised as beyond words and beyond mind.
