2.22

請監收上堂。竇八布衫穿。大家出隻手。橫須彌為概。量大海為斗。所以生殺在前。收放在後。歸功塞破虛空口。還知麼。天童不敢相辜。甘作啼雞吠狗。

Requesting the overseer of stores, he ascended the hall:
"Dou the Eighth's cloth shirt is worn through;
everyone lend a hand.
Lay Mount Sumeru across as the level-measure;
measure the great ocean as the peck.
Therefore, killing and giving life are at the fore;
withdrawing and releasing come behind.
Credit goes to choking shut the mouth of empty space.
Do you still understand?
Tiantong would not dare betray you;
he gladly serves as the crowing cock and the barking dog."
