15.66

Nursing and feeding (乳哺: [哺 has the] fanqie 蒲慕. Xu Shuzhong's [Xu Shen's] commentary on the Huainanzi says: "Chewing food in the mouth and giving it [to a child]." The Kaosheng says: "Holding and chewing food in the mouth, like a bird feeding its chick." It is composed of 口 with 捕 abbreviated. In the sūtra text it is written as 餔, which is an error; the character 餔 originally has the fanqie 步胡, and is not the original character).
