84.205

Wild and fastidious [狂狷] (The upper character is 瞿 plus 王 fanqie. Gu Yewang states: "The wild [狂] are foolish, alarmed, and trembling, their nature lacking order and reason." The *Analects* states: "Loving boldness without loving learning, the fault is wild unruliness." 悸 is pronounced 其 plus 季 fanqie. The lower character is 決 plus 面 fanqie. The *Shuowen* states: "狷 means leaping rapidly; it also means hasty." Both characters have 'dog' [犬], with 王 and 䏍 as their respective phonetics; 䏍 is pronounced 一 plus 縣 fanqie).
