32.143

貪[(羌-儿+(土*人))/(盜-皿)] ("covetous craving"; the lower character [xian] is xiang-jian fan; the Kaosheng says: 'Xian means to love; to yearn for'; Zheng's commentary on the Rites of Zhou says: 'Xian is like plenty'; the Han Commentary on the Book of Songs says: 'To desire'; the Shuowen says: 'Xian means covetous desire; from you and xian; you is from sheep and ren; xian is pronounced xian-yan fan; xian is pronounced you'; the sūtra writes it with the ci [次] radical as 羨, which does not have this meaning).
