瞎鼈(上赫戛反瞎鼈經名也考聲云目不見物也一云目閉也亦作𣎅形聲字也下鞭滅反鄭注考工記云鼈水介蟲外骨而內肉者也古今正字從虫作蟞經文從魚作鱉俗字也說文從黽敝聲黽音猛敝音與上同)。

瞎鼈 (the upper character is he and jia in fanqie. The Blind Turtle Sūtra is the name of a sūtra. The Kaosheng says: "The eyes cannot see things." One source says: "Closed eyes." It is also written as 𣎅, a phono-semantic character. The lower character is bian and mie in fanqie. Zheng's commentary to the Kaogongji says: "The turtle is an aquatic shelled creature, hard-shelled on the outside and fleshy within." The Gujin zhengzi writes it with 虫 as 蟞; the sūtra text writes it with 魚 as 鱉, which is a vulgar character. The Shuowen states it is composed of 黽 with 敝 phonetic; 黽 is pronounced meng, and 敝 is identical in sound with the above.)
