佛遺教經論疏節要 1.123

1.123

譬如有人手執蜜器動轉輕躁，但觀於蜜不見深坑。譬如狂象無鉤、猨猴得樹，騰躍踔躑難可禁制，當急挫之無令放逸。

"For instance, it is like a person holding a vessel of honey in hand, moving briskly and rashly, seeing only the honey and not seeing the deep pit. It is like an elephant driven mad without a goad, or an ape finding a tree, leaping, cavorting, and bounding about, hard to check and control. You should swiftly curb it, not letting it become heedless."
