putrādisambandhāt phalaṃ prītilakṣaṇam utpadyate iti putrādiṣu phalavadupacāraḥ, yathānne prāṇaśabdo ``annaṃ vai prāṇāḥ''iti//53//
Because the fruit, defined as pleasure, arises from a relation to a son and the like, the figurative application of being the fruit is made to a son and the like, just as the word ‘breath’ is applied to food in: “Food is indeed breaths.” //53
