86.117

憑螭(下恥離反楚辭云雨龍驂螭王注云螭若龍而無角亦謂之[施-方+多]螻也廣雅說文義並同從虫离聲或作[施-方+多]螻音樓)。

Relying on a hornless dragon 憑螭 (the second character is pronounced with the fanqie 恥 + 離; the Songs of Chu says: "A rain dragon teams with a hornless dragon." Wang [Yi's] commentary says: "A chi resembles a dragon but lacks horns; it is also called dilou [施-方+多]螻." The Guangya and Shuowen jiezi share the same meaning; it takes the insect radical 虫 and the phonetic 离; it is also written as [施-方+多]螻, where 螻 is pronounced 樓).
