沚清(上音止蒼頡篇云沚小渚也案鑒於澄止則見其形流動則亂其影止則定也合作止從水者失其義也)。

Still and clear (沚清: the former is pronounced *zhi* [*zhǐ*], the Cang Jie pian says: 'Zhi is a small islet.' Note: looking into still and clear water, one sees one's form; when moving, the reflection is disrupted; still means settled. It ought properly to be written 止 (still); writing it with 水 loses the meaning).
