龜鶴（上鬼危反文字典說云甲虫三百六十龜為之長外骨而內肉元龜長尺有二寸壽逾千歲象形下何各反字書云仙鳥名也一舉則千里說文從鳥隺聲也隺音同上朱頂者壽逾万歲鳥中最靈仙人所乘者也形聲字）。

> Turtle and crane (龜鶴: the first \[character\] is \*gui-wei\* \[g- + -uī = guī\] in fanqie; the Wenzi dianshuo says: “Among the three hundred and sixty shelled creatures, the turtle is chief; it is bony on the outside and fleshy on the inside; the prime turtle is one foot and two inches long, and lives more than a thousand years; it is a pictographic character.” The second is \*he-ge\* \[h- + -è = hè\] in fanqie; the character dictionary says: “It is the name of an immortal bird; with one lift of its wings it flies a thousand miles.” The Shuowen says: “Categorized under 'bird' with 隺 as phonetic; 隺 is pronounced the same as above. Those with red crowns live over ten thousand years; it is the most spiritually intelligent among birds and is ridden by immortals; it is a phono-semantic character”).
