[(夕*(ㄗ@、))/貝]鷹(上矛候反貨易俗從夘作貿以物博物也下億矝反鷙鳥也能捉兔說文從鳥雁聲)。

Bartering a hawk ([(夕*(ㄗ@、))/貝]鷹: the first is [pronounced] *mao* + *hou* [mào], meaning commercial exchange, vulgarly written with *mǎo* [夘] as 貿 [mào], exchanging goods for goods. The second is *yi* + *jin* [yīng], a bird of prey that can catch hares; the Shuowen says it takes the 'bird' radical [鳥] and the phonetic component *yan* [雁]).
