4.134

常嗁 [always weeping] (The second character has the fanqie [弟+泥] tí. Both the Kaosheng and the Jixun state: wailing without regular measure is called tí. The Shuowen says: tí means wailing; it is composed of 'mouth' with sī phonetic; sī has the same pronunciation as above. The Shuowen says the character sī is composed of 'tiger' with the radical 厂 (pronounced yè) phonetic. In the sūtra it is written with 'emperor' as 啼, meaning sorrowful).
