崑崙語(上音昆下音論時俗語便亦曰骨論南海洲島中夷人也甚黑裸形能馴伏猛獸犀象等種類數般即有僧祇突彌骨堂閤蔑等皆鄙賤人也國無禮義抄劫為活愛啖食人如羅剎惡鬼之類也言語不正異於諸蕃善入水竟曰不死)。

崑崙語 Kunlun speech (the first character is pronounced 崑; the second is pronounced 論; in common contemporary parlance it is also called 'Golun'. They are the barbarians of the islands in the South Sea, who are extremely black and naked, and able to tame ferocious beasts, rhinoceroses, elephants, and the like. There are several kinds: the Saṅghī, the Tumi, the Gutang, the Gemei, and so on; all are lowly and base people. Their lands lack propriety and righteousness; they live by raiding and looting, and delight in cannibalism, akin to rakṣasas and evil demons. Their speech is irregular and differs from that of all other barbarians; they are adept at diving into the water and do not die even when staying submerged for a whole day).
