捫摸（上沒奔反下門搏反詩傳云捫持也聲類捫亦摸也方言云摸撫也文字典說二字並從手門莫皆聲）。

Groping and feeling (捫摸: the first character has the fanqie 沒奔 [mò + bēn -> mén]; the second has the fanqie 門搏 [mén + bó -> mó]; Mao's *Poetry Commentary* says: "*Men* (捫) means to hold." The *Shenglei* says: "*Men* also means to feel (*mo*)." The *Fangyan* says: "*Mo* (摸) means to stroke." The *Wenzi dianshuo* has both characters with the 'hand' radical, with *men* (門) and *mo* (莫) as phonetics).
