27.13

耆闍崛山(上音祇梵云姞利駄羅矩吒山此云鷲峯亦云鷲臺此山峯上多栖鷲鳥又類高臺故也餘音皆訛餘釋皆非恐煩不述但舉正言下皆準此解也)。

耆闍崛山 (The first character is pronounced like 祇 [qí]. In Sanskrit: Gṛdhrakūṭa mountain; translated here as Vulture Peak, also called Vulture Terrace. Because many vultures roost upon the peak of this mountain, and it also resembles a high terrace. Other phonetic renderings are all corrupt, and other explanations are all incorrect; fearing verbosity, I do not state them, but only present the correct words; the following cases should all be understood in accordance with this).
