企牀(古文𧿍同丘鼓反釋名云企启也启開也言自延竦之時樞機皆開張也律文從山作企小延反說文人上山貌也亦本古文危字但此二字人多致惑所以具釋也)。

Stand tiptoe on a bed (企牀: The ancient script is 𧿍, the same, fanqie 丘 [and] 鼓. Shiming says: "Qi (企) means to open (qi 启); qi (启) means to unclose, saying that when one stretches upward on tiptoe, all joints open and unfold." The Vinaya text writes it with the mountain radical as 企, fanqie 小 [and] 延. Shuowen jiezi: "The appearance of a person climbing a mountain." It is also originally the ancient character for danger (wei 危). But because these two characters often cause confusion, I explain them in full).
