55.54

慷慨(上康朗反下開改反考聲慷慨志氣不平也亦傷歎也王逸注楚辭云慷慨中情恚恨心切剝也說文慷慨二字並從心康既皆聲經從冗氣作忱愾俗字通用)。

Kangkai (impassioned and indignant) (the first character has the fanqie: 康 + 朗 [kāng]; the second character has the fanqie: 開 + 改 [kǎi]; the *Kaosheng* states: 'Kangkai means the spirit is unsettled with indignation; it also means grieved sighing.' Wang Yi's commentary to the *Chuci* states: 'Kangkai means deeply felt resentment and indignation cutting into the heart.' The *Shuowen* states: 'The two characters *kang* and *kai* both take 心 as semantic classifier, with 康 and 既 respectively as phonetics.' The sūtra writes them with 气 as 忱愾, which are commonly interchangeable popular variants).
