26.54

Supported on the thighs (yǐ zhù bì 以柱髀) (pú + mǐ fanqie; Northerners use this sound. Also bì + ěr fanqie; this sound is used in Jiangnan. The Shiming says: 'Bì [thigh] means low (bēi 卑); it is named for being below'. In ancient script it is also written 䠋. Some sūtra texts write 𮛚 or 䏶; both forms are vulgar characters, not standard).
