41.111

迦遮隣底迦(上下迦字音薑佉反底音丁以反瑞鳥名也身有𦶇毛非常輕䎡績以為衣轉輪聖王方御此服彼國即今見有此鳥之類毛麤不如轉輪聖王得者)。

Kācalindika (迦遮隣底迦: the upper and lower jiā characters are pronounced with the fanqie jiāng + qū; the dǐ character has the fanqie dīng + yǐ [dǐ]; the name of an auspicious bird; its body has downy feathers that are extraordinarily light and soft; spinning them makes garments that only a wheel-turning sage king may wear; in that country today such birds can still be seen, but their down is coarse and not comparable to what the wheel-turning sage king obtains).
