【震越】應法師云：「此翻衣服，應是臥具。」《釋名》曰：「服上曰衣。衣，依也，所以庇寒暑也。」《傳》云：「衣，身之章也。上曰衣，下曰裳。」《白虎通》曰：「衣者，隱也。裳者，障也。所以隱形自障蔽也。」《涅槃》云：「如世衣裳，障覆形體。」

[Zhenyue] Dharma Master Ying says: "This translates as 'clothing'; it should mean bedding." The Shiming states: "Garments worn above are called yi. Yi means to rely upon (yi), because they shelter one from cold and heat." The Zuo Tradition states: "Robes are the emblems of the body. The upper is called yi, the lower is called shang." The Baihu tong states: "Yi means to conceal (yin). Shang means to shield (zhang). They serve to conceal the body and shield oneself." The Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra states: "Like the robes and skirts of the world, shielding and covering the physical body."
