16.32

Cangue and chains (枷鎖: the first character is pronounced jiā. The second character has the fanqie s- + [g]uo [=suǒ]; the Yupian says: 'Linked rings'; the Shuowen says: 'Suǒ (鎖) means to secure with a lock'; it is formed with 'metal' [金] and suo [𧴪] as phonetic; suo [𧴪] has the same sound as above; the sūtra text writes the two characters as 加 and 璅, both of which are scribal errors).
