此喻道人雖持禁戒雜染不純。相中似善口出惡言。欲喚是善口復出惡。欲喚非善相復出家。

This is an analogy for a practitioner who, although upholding the prohibitive precepts, is defiled and impure. In outward appearance he seems good, yet from his mouth come evil words. If one wishes to call him good, his mouth utters evil; if one wishes to call him not good, his appearance is that of a renunciant.
