    LIBIDO, LIVIDO

    Detailed discussion and subclassifications of desire.

    331. Inter Libidinem et lividinem [Forte, libidinem]. Libido per b cupiditas est animi; livido [ Forte, livedo] per v livor est corporis. Sunt autem multae variaeque libidines, sicut libido ulciscendi, quae ira vocatur; sicut libido habendi pecuniam, quae avaritia nominatur; sicut libido quomodocunque vincendi, quae pertinacia dicitur; sicut libido gloriandi, quae jactantia nuncupatur. Et cum sint multarum libidines rerum, 44 neque cujus rei libido sit adjicitur, non solet animo occurrere, nisi illa tantum qua obscenae partes corporis ad flagitiorum immunditias excitantur. Sed merito ista inter caetera hoc sibi nomen proprie obtinuit, quia in carne corruptibili plus caeteris saevit. Dicta [col. 44C] autem libido, eo quod libeat alienum pudorem, sive quamcunque rem appetere.

    貪，婪

    1. The distinction between ta1n 貪 "greed for goods", and la2n 婪 "greed for food" postulated by the old CC commentary is unsupported by any pre-Buddhist evidence. WL's claim that these were the original nuances of the word mechanically repeat a tradition without ascertaining its empirical basis. From a methodological point of view, this is a seriously misleading method. WL records a distinction which has not been operative at any recorded stage of the language.
