Quadrupeds and reptiles are the two kinds of terrestrial animals. The quadrupeds are of four kinds; listen to my description of them: (179)
(1) Solidungular animals, as horses, &c.;
(2) Biungular animals, as cows, &c.;
(3) Multiungular animals, as elephants, &c.;
(4) Animals having toes with nails, as lions, &c. (180)
The reptiles are of two kinds: 1. those which walk on their arms, as lizards, &c., and 2. those which move on their breast, as snakes, &c. Both are again of many kinds. (181)
182, 183 = 159, 160.
The longest duration of the life of terrestrial animals is three Palyôpamâs; the shortest is less than one muhûrta. (184)
The longest duration of the terrestrial animals’ continuance in the (same kind of) body is three Palyôpamâs plus from two to nine Krores of former years; the shortest is less than one muhûrta. (185)
186 = 83.
