86.117

Relying on a hornless dragon 憑螭 (the second character is pronounced with the fanqie 恥 + 離; the Songs of Chu says: "A rain dragon teams with a hornless dragon." Wang [Yi's] commentary says: "A chi resembles a dragon but lacks horns; it is also called dilou [施-方+多]螻." The Guangya and Shuowen jiezi share the same meaning; it takes the insect radical 虫 and the phonetic 离; it is also written as [施-方+多]螻, where 螻 is pronounced 樓).
