答曰。上仁上義便是許體仁義者為三才尋。又云。僑札未獲上附。伊顏宜其下麗。則黃裳之人其猶不及。雖賾之指高下無准。故惑者未悟。

Searching further, you also said: 'Zheng Qiao and Wu Zha failed to ascend above; Yi Yin and Yan Hui appropriately attached below.' Then even a person of 'yellow skirts' still falls short. Although profound purports have no fixed standard of high and low, those who are confused remain unenlightened.
