次門。初約四聖以分道共，自有優劣。三果，謂三位果人，比降漸劣。企，望也；望上進求，德未圓故。次內凡中二戒通四人，世第一為勝，煖位為劣，中二可知。外凡威儀，三位亦爾。若約通論，唯無學為優，五停至劣；中間九位，可以比知。

The next section: first, distinguishing path-concomitant [precepts] based on the four nobles naturally involves superiority and inferiority. 'Three fruits' refers to the persons of the three fruit stations; by comparison, they gradually become inferior. 'Looking forward' (qi) means hoping; they look forward and seek progress, as their virtue is not yet complete. Next, among the internal ordinary beings, the middle two precepts apply to all four persons; supreme worldly phenomena is superior and the heat stage is inferior, and the middle two can be known [accordingly]. For external ordinary beings with deportment, the three stations are also like this. If discussed comprehensively, only the non-trainee is superior and the five mental arrests are extremely inferior; the nine intermediate stations can be known by comparison.
