41.111

Kācalindika (迦遮隣底迦: the upper and lower jiā characters are pronounced with the fanqie jiāng + qū; the dǐ character has the fanqie dīng + yǐ [dǐ]; the name of an auspicious bird; its body has downy feathers that are extraordinarily light and soft; spinning them makes garments that only a wheel-turning sage king may wear; in that country today such birds can still be seen, but their down is coarse and not comparable to what the wheel-turning sage king obtains).
