78.11

Bùxuàn (不眴, without blinking; the lower [character] has the fanqie [xuán + juàn]; Wang Yi's commentary on the Chuci states: "Xuàn (眴) is the appearance of looking." Gu Yewang states: "In modern usage, people moving their eyes to secretly caution one another." The Shuowen states: "The eyes swaying/flickering"; it takes '目' (eye) with '䀏' as phonetic; '䀏' has the same sound as above).
