斒駁（上八蠻反考聲云文雜也鄭註禮記雜色為斒說文駁文也從文扁經本作斑瑞王為斒說文駁文也從文扁聲經本作班瑞玉斒音平免反下邦邈反漢書云白黑雜謂之駁說文馬色不純也從馬爻聲經文從交作駮獸名也非此義俗用誤也）。

Bānbó 斒駁 (The first character is fanqie 八蠻 [bān]. The Kaosheng says: 'variegated patterns'. Zheng's commentary on the Liji says: 'mixed colors form bān 斒'. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'mottled patterns; with radical wén 文 and biān 扁 phonetic; the sūtra text has 斑'. For auspicious jade, bān is fanqie 平免 [biǎn]. The lower character is fanqie 邦邈 [bó]. The Hanshu says: 'A mixture of white and black is called bó 駁'. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'A horse whose color is not pure; with radical mǎ 馬 and yáo 爻 phonetic'. In the sūtra text, it is written with jiāo 交 as 駮, the name of a beast; it does not have this meaning, and the vulgar use is an error).
