鬼𩲐（眉秘反鄭注周禮云[(魅-ㄙ)-未+勿]所以從其為人與物也蓋祭天地之明曰百物之神曰[(魅-ㄙ)-未+勿]山海經云[(魅-ㄙ)-未+勿]之為物人身黑首說文正作鬽老物精也從鬼生毛從彡今亦作魅或作魅也）。

鬼𩲐 [demons and goblins]: Read with the fanqie mei + bi. Zheng's commentary on the Zhouli says: '[(魅-ㄙ)-未+勿] is that which follows whether it is human or an object. Offerings to the spirits of heaven and earth are called ming; spirits of the hundred things are called [(魅-ㄙ)-未+勿].' The Shanhaijing says: 'The creature called [(魅-ㄙ)-未+勿] has a human body and a black head.' The Shuowen jiezi states that it is correctly written as 鬽: 'The essence of an old thing; composed of ghost (鬼) growing hair, with shan (彡) as radical.' Nowadays it is also written as 魅 or 魅.
