蠅蝱(上孕蒸反下麥彭反鄭箋毛詩蠅之為蟲污白為黑方言陳楚秦晉之間謂之蠅東齊謂之羊聲訛轉也郭璞曰江東人呼羊聲似蠅也)。

Flies and gadflies (蠅蝱: the first [character] is *y(ing)* + *z(hing)* in fanqie; the second is *m(ai)* + *p(hong)* in fanqie. Zheng [Xuan's] commentary on the Mao Shi says: 'The fly as an insect turns white into black.' The Fangyan says: 'Between Chen, Chu, Qin, and Jin it is called *ying* (蠅); in eastern Qi it is called *yang* (羊). This is a phonetic corruption.' Guo Pu says: 'People of Jiangdong pronounce *yang* like *ying*.')
