鍼筩（上執林反廣雅云鍼㓨也顧野王云綴衣鐵也說文鍼所以縫衣也從金咸聲或作針俗字也下徒紅反考聲云竹筩也說文云斷竹也從竹甬聲甬音勇經作筒亦通）。

鍼筩 (Needle case: The first character [鍼], pronounced *zhi* + *lin* [zhēn]. The *Guangya* states: '鍼 means to pierce.' Gu Yewang states: 'Iron for sewing garments.' The *Shuowen* states: '鍼 is that with which garments are sewn; composed of 金 with 咸 as phonetic.' It is also written 針, a vulgar character. The second character [筩], pronounced *tu* + *hong* [tǒng]. The *Kaosheng* states: 'A bamboo tube.' The *Shuowen* states: 'Severed bamboo; composed of 竹 with 甬 as phonetic.' 甬 is pronounced *yong* [yǒng]. The sūtra writes it as 筒, which is also permissible).
