38.124

雲雹 (The lower character is pronounced with the fanqie 疣邈 [bó]. The Baihu tong says: "Hail (雹) implies 'coalescing' (合). The concentrated essence of yin qi condenses and coalesces into hail." Zheng Xuan's commentary to the Liji says: "Yang becomes rain; yin arises to press against it, congealing and consolidating it into hail.")
