81.80

To relieve (用紓: pronounced *shu* + *zhu* [shū]. The *Zuo tradition* says: 'Thereby to relieve the distress of the State of Chu.' Du Yu's commentary says: '紓 is like to ease (緩).' The *Fangyan* says: 'To resolve/loosen.' The *Shuowen jiezi* says: 'Formed from the "silk" radical (糸) with *yu* (予) as the phonetic component.' In the transmitted text it is written with 帀 as 𰫚, which is an error).
