下將後八攝前四，八斷，即前二十八卷四瑜伽能斷隨眠，即欲精進信方便也。對法雖有四種相攝而全不同，不可會之。其此中次第與二十八中，四瑜伽不同者。此中，八斷次第，如文前後相生，前卷云：四瑜伽中，信為初對法亦同，故彼論文信為欲因。義曰：立欲精進時不離信，信合在初，有信佛等故方起欲等，今以不離信故故說信於後。此對法文自會四瑜伽說生次第故，故信為初。

Below, the latter eight subsume the former four. The eight abandonments are precisely the four yogas capable of cutting off dormant tendencies in the preceding fascicle 28, namely desire, striving, faith, and skillful means. Although the Abhidharma has four kinds of mutual subsumption, they are entirely different and cannot be reconciled. As for why the sequence here differs from the four yogas in fascicle 28: herein, the sequence of the eight abandonments arises in succession as found in the text. The earlier fascicle says that among the four yogas, faith is the first; the Abhidharma agrees, and so that treatise's text takes faith as the cause of desire. The meaning is: when establishing desire and striving, they are not separate from faith, and faith properly comes first; only because one has faith in the Buddha and so forth does one then give rise to desire, etc. Now, because [they] are not separate from faith, faith is spoken of after them. This text of the Abhidharma itself reconciles the four yogas by stating the sequence of their arising, and therefore faith is first.
