四明十義書 2.118

2.118

如此之說，言無準繩，那堪評論教觀？極是不惜人身之者，亦避人嫌笑，未肯作此顛倒言談。況是傳教之人，那得至於斯耶？若欲盡書上人違心負口之過，直恐空費紙墨也。故且止之。幸請省己責躳，捨邪歸正，知過能改亦稱君子也。不可更延歲月，必須速降回音。

With statements like these, your words lack any standard; how could you be fit to evaluate teachings and contemplations? Even someone utterly unsparing of their human body would still avoid the derision of others and would never be willing to utter such topsy-turvy talk. How much less should one who transmits the teachings go to such extremes! If I wished to write down all your transgressions of going against your mind and breaking your word, I fear it would simply waste paper and ink. Therefore I shall pause here. I sincerely request that you reflect upon yourself and reproach your own person, abandon the perverse and return to the correct; one who knows their faults and is able to change is also called an exemplary person. You must not delay for months and years any further; you must swiftly send back a reply.
