樓炭經云。後有嬾人。取四五日糧。所刈有處粳米便不復生。祐以為機心。一動則物離其真。精靈所感速於風電。嘗聞兩漢之時。東菜加租而海魚不出。合浦貪珠而璣蜯遠移。以近代方古。若合符契。粳米不生未足異也。

> The \*Loutan jing\* says: "Later, there were lazy people who gathered four or five days' provisions; where it was harvested, the non-glutinous rice no longer grew." Sengyou considers: "Once cunning arises in the heart, things deviate from their true nature; the resonance of spiritual beings is faster than wind and lightning. I have heard that in the time of the two Han dynasties, when Donglai increased taxes, the sea fish did not appear, and when Hepu coveted pearls, the oysters moved far away. Comparing recent times to antiquity, they correspond like tally and contract; that the non-glutinous rice ceased to grow is hardly a wonder."
