چون نیابد نص اندر صورتی ** از قیاس آنجا نماید عبرتی
(But) in a case where he does not find a Statute, there he will produce an example from analogy.
تشبیه نص با قیاس
Comparison between Statute and analogy.
نص وحی روح قدسی دان یقین ** وان قیاس عقل جزوی تحت این
Know for sure that Statute is the Revelation of the Holy Spirit and that the analogy made by the individual intellect is under (subordinate to) this.
عقل از جان گشت با ادراک و فر ** روح او را کی شود زیر نظر
The intellect is endued with apprehension and enlightenment by the Spirit: how should the Spirit become subject to its supervision?
لیک جان در عقل تاثیری کند ** زان اثر آن عقل تدبیری کند3585
But the Spirit makes an impression on the intellect, and in consequence of that impression the intellect exercises a certain governance.
نوح‌وار ار صدقی زد در تو روح ** کو یم و کشتی و کو طوفان نوح
If the Spirit has declared a belief in you, as (in) Noah, where is the Sea and the Ship (Ark) and the Flood of Noah?
عقل اثر را روح پندارد ولیک ** نور خور از قرص خور دورست نیک
The intellect deems the impression to be the Spirit, but the light of the sun is very far from (being) the orb of the sun.
زان به قرصی سالکی خرسند شد ** تا ز نورش سوی قرص افکند شد
Hence a pilgrim (on the Mystic Way) is content with a loaf of bread (qursí), in order that by its light he may be thrown (directed) towards the (Divine) Orb (Qurs),
زانک این نوری که اندر سافل است ** نیست دایم روز و شب او آفل است
Because this light which is below is not lasting: it is sinking (every) day and night,
وانک اندر قرص دارد باش و جا ** غرقه‌ی آن نور باشد دایما3590
While he that has his abode and dwelling-place in the (Divine) Orb is plunged in that Light continually.
نه سحابش ره زند خود نه غروب ** وا رهید او از فراق سینه کوب
Neither does cloud waylay him nor setting (of the sun): he is delivered from heart-wringing separation.
