煒曄(上韋鬼反下炎劫反王注楚辭云煒曄曰赤光盛貌也或從火作燁並形聲字也)。

Dazzling and radiant (煒曄: the first character is pronounced 韋 [wéi] + 鬼 [guǐ] fanqie; the second is pronounced 炎 [yán] + 劫 [jié] fanqie. Wang's commentary on the Songs of Chu says: '煒曄 describes the abundant appearance of red light.' It is also written with 火 as 燁; both are phono-semantic compound characters).
