T1566 was taken down by two different amanuenses 筆受: According to a second preface by Falin 法琳, preserved in Falin's Bian zheng lun, for Ch 1-16 (juan 1-9) it was Huiyi 慧賾, and for Ch. 17-27 (juan 10-15) was Falin. Funayama notes that differences can be detected between the two portions, for example in the formula used to introduce gāthās: 如偈曰/論者偈曰 vs. 故論偈言/如論偈說. This implies that amanuenses were possibly often those who bishou were probably often the people who decided translation terms, wording etc. [This has obvious implications for studies of ascription on stylistic grounds---whose style are we finding?----MR]
