𤯞黃（戚經反東方色也爾雅春青陽也字從丹從生木生丹丹青之信必然者也經文作綪且見反精今非體）。

𤯞黃 (Pronounced with the fanqie 戚經 [qīng]; the color of the east. The Erya states: 'Spring is the azure Yang.' The character is formed from 丹 [cinnabar] and 生 [to produce], since wood produces cinnabar; cinnabar and azure (vermilion and blue) reliably correspond. The sūtra text has 綪, pronounced with the fanqie 且見 [qiàn], meaning fine silk, which is not the proper orthography here).
