甲麝（上古狹反下神夜反切韻麝香獸香也尒雅曰麝父麕足郭注云脚似麕而有香也按本草甲亦獸甲煎而成香經言甲麝今據壇法甲麝雖香為傍生身分故不用也）。

甲麝 (The first character has the fanqie *gu* + *xia* [jia]. The second character has the fanqie *shen* + *ye* [she]. The *Qieyun* states: "Musk, the scent of an animal." The *Erya* states: "The musk deer (*she*) has feet like a river deer (*jun*)." Guo's commentary states: "Its legs resemble those of a river deer, and it has perfume." According to the *Bencao*, *jia* is also the shell or horn of an animal boiled down to make incense. The sūtra speaks of *jiashe*; however, according to the rules of the maṇḍala altar, though shell/operculum (*jia*) and musk (*she*) are fragrant, because they are body parts of animals, they are not to be used.)
