Visuddhimagga XV-24

Kamatoti idhāpi pubbe vuttesu uppattikkamādīsu desanākkamova yujjati.

（三）「以次第」，这里亦如前面所说的生起次第等之中，以说法的次第为适宜。

Ñ(XV,24): 3. As to order: here too, from among 'order of arising', etc., mentioned above (Ch. XIV, §211), only 'order of teaching' is appropriate.

So ca panāyaṃ hetuphalānupubbavavatthānavasena vutto.

那说法的次第，是指确定因果的次序而说，

Ñ: It is set forth according to successive definition of cause and fruit.

Cakkhudhātu rūpadhātūti idañhi dvayaṃ hetu,

即眼界与色界二种为因，

Ñ: For the pair, eye element and visible-data element, are the cause

cakkhuviññāṇadhātūti phalaṃ.

而眼识界是果。

Ñ: and eye-consciousness element is the fruit.

Evaṃ sabbattha.

余者亦然。[PTS 486]

Ñ: So in each case.
