13 火:
《庄子》曰:指穷于为薪,火传也。为薪犹薪(御览八百六十九薪上有前薪也前四字,此脱,)以指,指尽前薪之理,故火传而不灭,必得纳养之中,故命续而不绝。

9 指:
《庄子》曰:骈拇枝指出乎性哉?而侈于德。枝于手者,树无用之指也。
又曰:以指喻指之非指,不若以非指喻指之非指也。
又曰:指穷为薪而火傅也。穷尽以为薪,犹前薪以指,指尽前薪之理,故火傅而不灭。

4 火下:
《庄子》曰:木与木相摩则燃,金与火相守则流。阴阳错行,则天地大骇,于是乎有雷有霆。水中有火,乃焚大槐。
又曰:利害相摩,生火甚多,内热也。众人焚和。众人遗利则和,若利害存怀,则其和焚矣。
又曰:曾子居卫,缊袍无表,三日不举火,十年不制衣。
又曰:孔子穷于陈、蔡之间,七日不火食。
又曰:指穷于为薪,火传,穷,尽也。为薪,犹前薪也。前薪以指,指尽前薪,故火传而不灭。不知其尽也。前火非后火,故为薪而火传,火传而命续,由夫养得其极也,世岂知其尽而更生哉?
又曰:以火救火,以水救水,名之曰益多。适不能救,乃更足以成彼之威。
又曰:山木自寇也,膏火自煎也。
又曰:马血为磷,人血为野火。
又曰:尧让天下于许由。许由曰:“日月出矣,而爝火不息,其于光也,不亦难乎!”
