§62 病人食雉肉喻
(62) the patient eats the pheasant meat
昔有一人，病患委笃。良医占之曰：“须恒食一种雉肉，可得愈病。”而此病者，市得一雉，食之已尽，更不复食。医于后时，见便问之：“汝病愈未？”
once upon a time, there was a man who was seriously ill. a skillful physician prescribed that he could be cured by eating some pheasant meat. after he finished eating one, the patient did not eat it again. afterwards, the doctor came to him and asked, "how do you feel now?"
病者答言：“医先教我恒食雉肉，是故今者食一雉已尽，更不敢食。”
the patient replied, "you have told me to eat some pheasants. now that i have eaten it, i dare not eat it again."
医复语言：“若前雉已尽，何不更食？汝今云何止食一雉，望得愈病？”
the physician said, "but why not? how can you expect to be cured with only one pheasant?"
