The Roll Call Continues
A second run of banner names gives way to a series built on sound — some naming an actual sonic image, like mountains clashing together, others naming what the sound accomplishes, like comforting every worldly suffering — before the roll call turns to two long runs built on the words "supreme" and "victorious."
A Sound That Comforts Every Suffering
Most sound-names in this run describe a sonic image — mountains clashing, a dharma-ocean's own thunder, a cloud-and-thunder of great compassion's skillful means. The last of them turns instead to effect rather than sound as such: a comforting sound that quiets every worldly suffering, closing the series on what the sound does rather than what it resembles.

息一切世間苦安慰音 — the comforting sound that quiets every worldly suffering. Every other sound-name in this run identifies a source or an occasion — a mountain, an ocean, the subduing of māra — but this final one names only the sound's own effect, closing the series on comfort itself rather than on whatever produces it.
Part 830 Complete
This continues chapter thirty-nine, 入法界品, in fascicle sixty. Part 831 completes the bodhisattva roll call — closing the run of victorious names, opening a run of sovereign kings and sounds, and ending in a run of names built on awakening — before the text finally names the number gathered and its ten shared qualities.
