### [26.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.26.9)

普通年中。何胤侈於味。食必方丈。後稍欲其甚者。使門人議之。學士鍾岏曰。蛆之就脯驟於屈伸。蟹之將煻躁擾彌甚。仁人用意深懷如怛。且不悴不榮曾芻蕘之不若。無馨無臭與瓦礫其何算。

> During the Putong era, He Yin was extravagant in his dining; his meals always covered a square zhang. Later, he gradually wished to go even further, and had his disciples deliberate on it. The scholar Zhong Wan said: 'When maggots approach dried meat, they hasten their bending and extending; when crabs are about to be steamed, their restless thrashing is ever more severe. When a benevolent person turns his mind to this, he deeply harbors sorrow and grief. Moreover, plants that neither wither nor bloom are inferior even to firewood and wild grass; lacking fragrance and stench, how can they compare to rubble?'
