The Kaosheng says: "The 犀 is the name of a beast." The Erya says: "The rhinoceros (xīniú) resembles a pig." Guo's commentary says: "The rhinoceros looks like a water buffalo, with the head of a pig, a large belly, short legs with three hooves, black in color, and having two horns: one on the crown and one on the snout. The one on the snout is the horn used for eating vessels." The Shuowen says: "The rhinoceros comes from outside the frontier in the Southern Seas; it derives from 牛 \[ox\] and an abbreviated 尾 \[tail\]." In the treatise it is written with 辛 as 屖, which is incorrect and not adopted here.) > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 86.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.86.46) - [Next: 86.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.86.48) - [Up: 86](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.86) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.86.47) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.86.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.86.47) · Pramāṇa
