考治 (To interrogate and punish: The fanqie is 枯老 [kǎo]. The Kaosheng says: 'Suffering; also to strike.' The Mao Commentary on the Book of Odes says: 'You have bells and drums, but do not strike or beat [考] them.' The Fangyan says: '考 means to draw out.' In the sūtra text it is written with the hand radical as 拷, which is an incorrect popular character.)
