欲界三十六處等者,如前第四卷說,黑勝生者,姓業惡名黑,是人趣故名勝,或黑中之極故名黑勝。旃荼羅者,屠兒也。卜羯婆者,亦云補羯婆,除糞穢家也。非黑非白勝生者,則吠舍等。
Regarding 'the thirty-six places of the desire realm' and so on, as explained previously in Fascicle 4: 'Dark and superior births'—the family line and karma are evil, hence called 'dark'; being of the human destiny, it is called 'superior'; or it is called 'dark and superior' because it is the extreme among the dark. A caṇḍāla is a butcher. A pukkasa, also called bokkasa, is a family of scavengers of excrement and filth. 'Births that are neither dark nor white yet superior' refers to vaiśyas and the like.
