Summary: wisdom mired in guck
Comment: This unfortunately seems to be the only English edition of this classic that is available. "Unfortunately", because the translator has indulged in putting sections of the text into a horrible singsong archaic rhyme form. Here's a random selection: "How eluding and vague/ All types including!/How vague and eluding,/All beings including!/How deep and how obscure./ It harbors the spirit pure,/Whose truth is ever sure,/ Whose faith abides for aye/ From of yore until to-day." If you can tolerate this, there are some stunning thoughts here - but that's a big if.
