2.39
[Elāpattra] The *Chanyi chao* states: 'Also called Elāpattra. Elā is the name of a tree, translated here as foul odor. Pattra translates here as extreme. It means that in the past this dragon damaged the leaves of this extremely foul-smelling tree, which caused this foul tree to grow upon its head; hence it was named accordingly.'
