【兜羅綿】兜羅，此云細香。苑《音義》翻氷。或云兜沙，此云霜。斯皆從色為名。或名妬羅綿，妬羅樹名，綿從樹生，因而立稱，如柳絮也。亦翻楊華，或稱兜羅毦（而使）者，毛毳也。《熏聞》云：「謂佛手柔軟，加以合縵，似此綿也。」

[Tūla floss] Tūla translates here as fine fragrance. The Yinyi of Ci'en translates it as ice. Or it is called dousha, which translates here as frost. These are all named according to color. It is also called tuoluo floss; tuoluo is the name of a tree, and the floss is produced from the tree, hence it takes this name, like willow catkins. It is also translated as willow blossom; or called tuoluo-er, which means downy fleece. The Xunwen says: 'It means the Buddha's hands are soft and supple, and additionally webbed, resembling this floss.'
