72.71

Soaking and moistening (浸潤: the first character [浸] is fanqie 子泌 [zì]. Gu Yewang says: "浸 (soak) is like gradually moistening." He also says: "浸 means sinking/steeping." Character dictionaries sometimes write it as 𥧲 or as 浸. The Wenzidian shuo says: "浸 refers to what is poured by drawing water." It is formed with the water radical [水] and 𠬶 as phonetic; 𠬶 has the fanqie 且荏 [qiě]).
