We can define the gradients $\nabla \equiv \frac{\D \ln \T}{\D \ln \P}$ and $\nabla' \equiv \frac{\D \ln \T'}{\D \ln \P}$. Here $\nabla$ represents the average temperature gradient with respect to pressure of all matter at a given level, while $\nabla'$ is the temperature gradient with respect to pressure of a rising/falling fluid element.   At first order the temperature excess of such fluid elements can therefore be written as  \begin{equation}  \Delta \T (\Delta r) = \T'(r + \Delta r) - \T(r + \delta r) \simeq \Delta r \bigg[ \frac{\D \T'}{\D r}-\frac{\D \T}{\D r}\bigg] r}\bigg].  \end{equation}  Assumin $\T' \simeq \T$, i.e. the temperature is not changing drastically within the distance $\Delta r$, one can write   \begin{equation}  \Delta \T (\Delta r) = \Delta r \T \bigg[ -\frac{\D \ln \T}{\D r}- (-\frac{\D \ln \T'}{\D r})\bigg].  \end{equation}
