51.41

"Three shames" (Fanqie: 雜 + 甘 [cán]. The Shangshu says: 'Only having shameful virtue.' The Shuowen jiezi says: '慚 means ashamed.' It derives from the mind radical with an abbreviated 斬 as phonetic. The treatise writes it as 漸, pronounced with the fanqie: 蠶 + 感 [cǎn], which does not accord with the meaning).
