鰥寡(古頑反釋名云無妻曰鰥無子曰獨言鰥人愁悒不𥧌目常鰥鰥然如魚眼不閉故字從魚從眾眾反目也)。
Widower and widow (鰥寡; [鰥 is] fanqie 古頑; the *Shiming* states: "One without a wife is called *guan*; one without children is called *du*." It means a widower is gloomy and cannot sleep, his eyes constantly wide like a fish's eyes that do not shut; hence the character is composed of "fish" [魚] and "crowd" [眾], with *zhong* meaning turned eyes).
