20.134

踡縮(上逵圓反埤蒼云踡跼不伸也古今正字云從足卷聲經本從手作捲是用力氣勢貌也非踡縮也)。

Curling up (踡縮: the first character is [pronounced] quan [kui + yuan fan]. The Picang states: '踡 means crouched and unextended.' The Gujin zhengzi states: 'From foot (足), quan (卷) phonetic.' In some versions of the sūtra it is written with hand (手) as 捲, which depicts an exerting of strength and posture, not curling up).
