脾腎（婢彌反白虎通云脾之為言辦也所以積精稟氣土之精也色黃說文木藏也下時刃反白虎通云腎之言賓也以𰩇寫水之精色黑陰偊故𦜜雙說文二字竝從肉臤聲臤音堅）。

Spleen and kidneys (脾腎): [the first character is pronounced with the fanqie] 婢 + 彌. The Baihu tong says: 'The spleen (pí) corresponds to discern (bàn); it is that by which essence is stored and qi is received; it is the quintessence of earth; its colour is yellow.' The Shuowen says: 'The wood organ.' The second character is [pronounced with the fanqie] 時 + 刃. The Baihu tong says: 'The kidneys (shèn) correspond to guest (bīn); by drawing off and discharging the quintessence of water, their colour is black; being yin, they are a pair, hence they form a pair.' The Shuowen says: 'Both characters take the radical 肉 (flesh); [the second has] 臤 as phonetic; 臤 has the sound jiān.'
