13:27 There is no one who does not love his or her children. If these beloved children acted selfishly without knowing how much their parent(s) have devoted themselves for them, how sad would their parents feel? Know that I feel the same way.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 202 二七、だれでも、自分の子供可愛いくない者はない。その可愛い子供が、親の心尽くしも知らず勝手な事をしていたら、親としては残念であろうが、親神の心もこれと同じである。
