常為(榮偽反玉篇使也被也母猴為此禽獸好爪持人母猴象膓為母猴形象形字也)。

Constantly acts [常為]: ([The fanqie for 為 is] rong + wei. The Yupian says: 'to employ'; 'to cover'. The macaque [is called] wei [為]; this animal likes to claw and hold people. The macaque depicts the intestines; wei portrays the form of a macaque, being a pictographic character).
