2.92

The Lotus Clepsydra. Among Master Huiyuan's disciples was the monk Huiyao. Troubled that there was no clepsydra in the mountains, he placed twelve lotus leaves upon the water that rotated with the ripples to mark the twelve double-hours, without any error against the solar shadow. Today this is called Master Huiyuan's Lotus Clepsydra.
