46.205

Xianzhu 燂豬 (the Shenglei gives the two forms 燂 and 燖. Character manuals give the ancient forms 𰋔 and 鬻; now written as 燅, identical, [pronounced with the] fanqie 詳廉 [xiáng + lián/*ziɛm/xián]. The Shuowen says: 'Xian 燅 means scalding meat in boiling water.' The Tongsu wen says: 'Removing hair with boiling water is called yu 鬻.' In the treatise text it is written as yan 爓. We note that in the Shuowen and various commentaries to the Rhapsody on the Shu Capital, it is uniformly pronounced with the fanqie 余贍 [yú + shàn/*jiæm/yàn], and also 羊占 [yáng + zhān/*jiɛm/yán]. The Shuowen says: 'Yan 爓 means brilliant fire.' Yan 爓 is not the present sense).
