[803] [The Blessed One:] "First there is the coagulum (kalala); from the coagulum there comes to be the swelling (abbuda); from the swelling the lump of flesh (pesi) is born; from the lump of flesh the solid mass (ghana) is produced; from the solid mass the limbs (pasākhā) are born, and the head-hairs, the body-hairs, and the nails as well. And whatever food, drink, and nourishment his mother consumes— by that he maintains himself there, the person within his mother's womb." The Sakka Sutta, the second.
