9.43

In explaining the sixteen kinds of alterative natures, the treatise concludes by saying: "The former six kinds are matters of appropriation; the latter ten kinds are matters of bodily requisites. The six kinds that are matters of appropriation" refer to: first, land; second, gardens; third, mountains; fourth, waters; fifth, activities; sixth, storehouses. The ten kinds of bodily requisites are: first, drink; second, food; third, conveyances; fourth, clothing; fifth, ornaments; sixth, dancing, singing, music, and the like; seventh, perfumes and garlands; eighth, utensils; ninth, light and dark; tenth, male and female. According to the preceding enumeration, drink and food were each one matter; in the present explanation, drink and food are combined into one, which is why they are merged as a single kind.
