Heroes and stalwarts (豪傑: ancient script is 𠢕; hu and gao fan; the second character is qi and zhe fan; the Huainanzi says: 'One whose wisdom surpasses a hundred men is called a hao; one who surpasses a thousand is called a jie'; considering this, hao is like an outstanding person; the Da Dai Liji says: 'Hao means a leader; jie means someone standing out prominently'; an eminent and outstanding person; it also means talent and ability; the Treatise writes 桀, but a chicken roosting on a stake is called a 桀, which is not this meaning).
