如樹心有蝎(下寒葛反考聲云蝎木中蠹蟲也尒雅云蝎桑蠹也古今正字云蝤蠐也從虫曷聲蝤音就由反蠐音齊蠹音妬)。

Like having grubs in the heart of a tree (如樹心有蝎: the last is pronounced [寒 + 葛] *xiē*. The Kaosheng says: 'A grub is an insect that bores into wood.' The Erya says: '蝎 is the mulberry borer.' The Gujin zhengzi says: 'It is the larva of the longhorn beetle. It takes the radical chóng and the phonetic hè.' 蝤 is pronounced [就 + 由] *qiú*; 蠐 is pronounced qí; 蠹 is pronounced dù).
