憫殤 Grieving for premature death: the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 旻 + 隕. Du's commentary on the Zuo Commentary says: '憫 (mǐn) describes the appearance of sorrow.' The Lisao says: 'Grieved by the pity of deep sighs.' The Shuowen says it takes the heart radical (心) and 閔 for phonetic. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 賞 + 章.
