26.68

Hunched back (bèilǚ 背僂) (lì + jǔ fanqie. The Guangya says: 'a bent back'. The Tongsuwen says: 'A curved spine is called yúlǚ [bent and hunched]'. In some sūtra texts it is written with the disease radical as 瘻, pronounced lú + gòu fanqie, which refers to haemorrhoids, not the meaning intended in the sūtra).
