3.33

問既有宗(深辨來風。箭不虛發)答亦攸仝(豈有兩般。如鐘待扣。功不浪施)
三句可辨(上中下。如今是第幾句。須是向三句外薦取始得)一鏃遼空(中。過也。𡎺著磕著。箭過新羅)
大野兮涼飈颯颯(普天匝地。還覺骨毛卓竪。麼。放行去也)
長天兮疎雨濛濛(風浩浩。水漫漫。頭上漫漫。脚下漫漫)君不見少林久坐未歸客(更有不唧𠺕漢。帶累殺人。黃河頭上。瀉將過來)
靜依熊耳一叢叢(開眠也著。合眼也著。鬼窟裏作活計。眼瞎耳聾。誰到這境界。不免打折爾版齒)

Since the question has an aim (Penetratingly discerning the oncoming wind. / The arrow is not shot in vain.), / The answer also corresponds (How could there be two kinds? / Like a bell awaiting the strike. / The effort is not wasted.).
The three phrases can be discerned (Upper, middle, lower. / Now which phrase is this? / You must grasp it outside the three phrases to attain it.), / An arrowhead flies through the vast void (It hits the mark. / Past it! / Striking against it, bumping into it. / The arrow has shot past Silla!).
Across the great wild, a cool gale soughs and sighs (Covering heaven and circling the earth. / Do you feel your bones and hairs stand erect? / It is let go and sent forth.),
In the vast sky, fine rain drizzles and mists (The wind is billowing, the water boundless. / Above the head, boundless; under the feet, boundless.). / Do you not see the guest at Shaolin sitting long and not returning (There is another fellow who lacks sharpness, / bringing immense trouble upon people. / Pouring down over the head of the Yellow River.)
Quietly leaning against Bear Ear, cluster upon cluster? (Fit whether opening the eyes; fit whether closing the eyes. / Setting up livelihood in the ghost cave. / Blind and deaf, who reaches this realm? / You cannot avoid having your front teeth knocked out.)
