57.37

熛起 ('bursting into flames'; the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 匹 + 遙. The Lüshi chunqiu says: "'Biao' (熛) is burning down palaces and incinerating accumulated stores." The Shuowen says: "Flying fire; it is formed from [the radical] 火 with 票—pronounced 必 + 消—as the phonetic component"; this is the orthodox character past and present).
