芻豢 (the first character is *chu* + *ju* in fanqie [chú]; the *Yunying* says: '芻 is grass; wild grass'; the *Shuowen* says: 'reaped grass; the upper part resembles bundles of bound grass; semantic three 勹 and two 屮; 屮 is *chou* + *lie* in fanqie [chè]; 勹 is pronounced 包 [bāo]; it is also correctly written with the grass radical as 蒭; writing 蒭 in the treatise is incorrect, for that is an ancient form of 多'; the second character, 豢, sounds like 患 [huàn]; Zheng's commentary on the *Rites of Zhou* says: 'Feeding cattle and sheep is called 芻; feeding dogs and pigs is called 豢'; the *Shuowen* says: 'To feed pigs with pen-slops and grain; semantic 豕 (pig), phonetic 卷 abbreviated').
