Cǎndú kǔ 慘𡹆苦 (The upper character is fanqie 楚銘 [chǐ] or 倉感 [cǎn]. The Fangyan says: 'cǎn 慘 means to kill'. The Kaosheng says: 'extreme'. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'cǎn means dú 𡹆; with radical xīn 心 and cān 參 phonetic'. The lower character is fanqie 同鹿 [dú]. Kong's commentary on the Shangshu says: 'dú 𡹆 means harm'. The Kaosheng says: 'painful, resentful, evil'. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'A weed harmful to humans; with radical zhōng 中 and dú 毒; in the sūtra it is written as dú 毒, which is an erroneous abbreviation; mǔ 坶 is fanqie 哀改 [ǎi], with radical tǔ 土 and wún 毋; mǔ 母 is pronounced wú 無').
