21.78

Crop-guarding spirit (稼 is pronounced 加暇. The *Guangya* says: "*Zhu* means to guard." Ma Rong's commentary on the *Analects* says: "Planting the five grains is called *jia*." This means that when the shoots of the five grains are cultivated in this field, this spirit guards and protects them so they suffer no damage).
