60.11

Qióngbiān 瓊編 (jade-like scrolls; the first character is pronounced with the fanqie kuí + yíng. The Mao Commentary to the Shijing says: 'Qióng is beautiful jade.' The Shuowen also says: 'Jade.' The Gujin zhengzi derives it from yù 玉 with xiòng 敻 as phonetic; xiòng is pronounced with the fanqie huī + jiǒng, deriving from rén 人, xué 穴, mù 目, and zhī 支. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie bì + mián. Liu Zhao's commentary to the Gongyang [zhuan] says: 'Biān means joining consecutively.' Gu Yewang says: 'Arranging bamboo slips in order.' It derives from sī 糸 with biān 扁 as phonetic).
