刖足(元厥反古之刑名也經史互說不同或名腓刑[夗-夕+月]未反或名𩪯毘胤反刑則皆一也民有越關梁踰城墎為掠盜者其刑刖考聲云斷足也或作𰸌說文從刀月聲也)。

刖足 (Amputating the feet: [yue has] the fanqie 元厥; the name of an ancient punishment. The classics and histories describe it differently: some call it fei 腓 punishment [wan with the fanqie 未反], or bin 𩪯 [with the fanqie 毘胤]; the punishments, however, are entirely the same. When people crossed passes and bridges or climbed city walls to commit robbery, their punishment was amputation of the feet. The Kaosheng says: 'Severing the feet.' It is also written as 𰸌. The Shuowen jiezi states that it is formed with the knife radical 刀 and yue 月 as phonetic).
