如犀（下洗賷反山海經云禱過之山多犀兕也郭注尒雅云犀形似水牛猪頭大腹卑脚脚三蹄黑色二角一在頂上一在鼻上在鼻上則食角小而不墮好食棘也說文南徼外一角鼻上似豕從牛尾省聲也）。

Like a rhinoceros (the lower character is [pronounced] fanqie: 洗 [xǐ] + 賷 [jī]; Shanhaijing says: “Mount Daoguo has many rhinoceroses and female rhinoceroses.” Guo's commentary on Erya says: “The rhinoceros resembles a water buffalo, with the head of a pig, a large belly, short legs, three hooves on each foot, a black body, and two horns: one on top of the head, one on the snout. The one on the snout is used when eating; its horn is small and does not fall off; it likes eating thorns.” Shuowen: “A single-horned beast outside the southern border, on its snout, resembling a pig; formed with the ox semantic radical and an abbreviated 尾 as phonetic”).
