踰繕那（市戰反此云合也應也計應合爾許度量同此方驛也自古聖王一曰行也案西國繕那亦有大小或三十里昔來皆取四十里為定舊經論中或作踰闍那或作由延亦作由旬或云俞句皆訛略也）。

踰繕那 Yojana (shì + zhàn fanqie; here translated as "joining" or "corresponding"; calculated as the measurement that corresponds to a postal relay stage here. Since ancient holy kings, it was a day's march. Note that in the Western regions, a yojana also has large and small measures, sometimes thirty lǐ; traditionally forty lǐ was taken as standard. In older sūtras and treatises, it was written 踰闍那, 由延, 由旬, or 俞句, all being corruptions or abbreviations).
