1.63

At that time the earth shook in six ways. (The six quakings are six kinds of seismic shaking: shaking, bubbling, trembling, rising, roaring, and striking. Shaking restlessly is called shaking; swelling up into hummocks and hollows is called bubbling; a low rumbling sound is called trembling; rising from low to high is called rising; thundering with loud noises is called roaring; slamming and startling beings is called striking. Each of these has three degrees: shaking just this place is 'shaking'; shaking the four continents is 'shaking everywhere'; shaking the entire trichiliocosm is 'shaking universally and everywhere'. The remaining five follow this pattern.)
