191. The Chinese reads 今身喜造橋船濟渡人者 “Those who in this life delight in ferrying many beings with bridges and boats” (Taishō 2881, p. 1383a22). Even though 濟渡 has the metaphorical connotation of liberating someone, the literal meaning is “to ferry across” or “to take across.” Since here the literal example is being used, it should be translated as “ferrying.”
