"The higher and higher word" means the word stated further and further, such as "for the convenience of the Saṅgha." "Of the lower and lower word" means of the word stated lower and lower, such as "for the good order of the Saṅgha." "That hundred words which were stated" is the connection. There, in that hundred words, the locative case is for determination; "hundred meanings" means a hundred things to be expressed. . "Dhammasata" means a hundred names, its meaning is a hundred Pāli texts. Showing an alternative meaning for the words "atthasataṃ dhammasataṃ," he said "or," and so on.

The connection is: "described in the commentary on the first Pārājika (Pārā. Aṭṭha. 1.39)." There, in the passage "for the well-being of the Saṅgha," and so on. "Very well, O deva" means "Very well, O great king." For since he shines with the power of command, the power of possessions, the power of sovereignty, therefore he is called a deva.

"Atthasata" in the verse, the explanation should be made, saying "a hundred meanings are to be understood in the chapter on reasons," and so on. "Iti hi" means "iti eva." The word "hi" indeed has the meaning of the word "eva." The connection is: "this word 'atthasata' and so on, is said." The connection is: "this, based on the meaning as stated."
