景云:西國有虫,形大如野干極癡鈍。婆沙舊名不正,故云有蛇名慢祇,自身既盲,生子亦盲,所嚇之處亦令他盲。

Jing says: In the Western countries there is a creature as large as a jackal, extremely dull and stupid. The old name in the *Vibhāṣā* was incorrect, so it says there is a snake named *mañji* (mārjāra?), which is itself blind, bears blind offspring, and wherever it frightens, it also makes others blind.
