持操(下草到反王注楚辭云操至也顧野王云持志貞固曰操考聲立志不改也從手喿聲)。

Maintaining integrity (持操: the second character is pronounced 草 [cǎo] + 到 [dào] fanqie. Wang's commentary on the Songs of Chu says: '操 means utmost.' Gu Yewang says: 'Holding firmly to one's will is called 操.' The Kaosheng says: 'Resolving one's purpose without wavering.' It takes 手 as semantic classifier and 喿 as phonetic).
