虵蛭鱓（上射遮反次音質下音善蒼頡篇蛭水蟲也郭注山海經云蟬魚如蛇或作蟺字蒼頡篇云䖤蟺蚓也此等皆無足腹行也或謂之豸是養蛇人養蟲毒人之所貯蓄將充蛇食並形聲字）。

Snakes, leeches, and swamp eels (the first character is shé in fanqie from shè and zhē; the next has the sound of zhì; the last has the sound of shàn; the Cangjie pian states that the leech is an aquatic worm; Guo's Commentary on the Shanhai jing says the cicada-fish resembles a snake, sometimes written with the worm radical as 蟺; the Cangjie pian says the wānshàn is the earthworm; all these are legless creatures that crawl on their bellies, also called creeping bugs; they are what snake charmers raise to poison people, or store up to serve as food for snakes; all are phono-semantic characters).
