29.95

Prepared and orderly (僃𢿫): The upper character has the fanqie *pí* + *mèi* (僃). The *Wenzi dian shuo* says: 'To guard against beforehand; to be complete.' The *Shuowen [jiezi]* says: 'Cautious. Derived from 人 with 𤰈 as phonetic; 𤰈 has the same pronunciation.' The lower character has the fanqie *zhēng* + *yǐng* (𢿫). Zheng [Xuan]'s commentary on the *Liji* says: '*Zhěng* means proper.' The *Shuowen [jiezi]* says: 'Orderly. Derived from 束, 攴, and 正 as phonetic.' The scripture writes it with 止 as 整, which is incorrect.
