論「若錦衣上至從異類起」,又牒計也。若以錦上色、類、業等屬於衣者,即衣實是一,縷實有種種異,即應衣實法從種種異類縷實法生,違自宗也。即違前立德法可爾,實法不然。若衣無實,色等依何起也。

The treatise says: "If on patterned brocade … arises from different classes." He again takes up their thesis: If the colors, classes, functions, and so forth on brocade belonged to the cloth, then the cloth would be a single substance while the threads would be substantially various and diverse; it would follow that the substantial entity of cloth arises from the substantially diverse entities of threads, which contradicts their own school's tenet. That is, it contradicts their earlier premise that qualities may be so, but substantial entities are not. If the cloth has no substantial reality, upon what would the colors and so forth arise?
