88.8

隤[糸*((刃*刃)/山)] (The upper character is pronounced 徒 + 雷 fanqie; the lower character is the standard form of the character 綱. The *Guangya* says: "隤 means ruined." The *Han commentary to the Odes* says: "Discarded." The *Kaosheng* says: "An object falling down; destroyed." The *Shuowen* says: "Falling downwards." It takes the mound classifier [𨸏] and is phonetic in 貴; or it takes the earth classifier [土] as 墤, meaning the same. The text of the biography writes it with the head classifier [頁] as 頹, which is not appropriate for this usage).

88.9

已紊 (Pronounced with the sound of 問. Kong's commentary to the *Shangshu* says: "紊 means disordered." It takes the silk classifier [糸] and is phonetic in 文).

88.10

Fascicle 1 of the *Original Biography of Dharma Master Falin*

88.15

隱遯 (Pronounced 屯 + 嫰 fanqie. Wang Yi's commentary to the *Chuci* says: "To hide in reclusion." Zheng's commentary to the *Liji* says: "To flee." The *Guangya* says: "To avoid the world." It is also written 遁, taking the motion classifier [辵] and phonetic in 豚; 豚 is pronounced 徒 + 魂 fanqie).

88.16

鏗鍠 (The upper character is pronounced 客 + 行 fanqie. In the *Liji*, Zixia says: "The bell's ringing sound (鏗鏗) is this." The *keng* of striking a blow is written 摼. The *Shuowen* has it with the carriage classifier [車] and phonetic in 真 as 䡩, or written 銵, all referring to sound. The lower character is pronounced with the sound of 宏. The commentary to the *Mao Commentary to the Odes* says: "Bells and drums clang sonorously (鍠鍠);" the commentary says: "Harmonious joy." The *Erya* also says: "鍠 means joy." Guo Pu says: "鍠 is the sound of drums." The *Shuowen* says: "The sound of bells." In character lexicons it is written 鍠 or written 喤, which are identical. In the biography it is written 鋐, which is a vulgar character).

88.17

伏轞 (Pronounced 咸 + 黤 fanqie. Note: 檻 is a cage-cart. The *Kaosheng* says: "A cart for carrying prisoners." This is a metaphor for the Dharma Master wishing to crush the heterodox factions: he first made himself thoroughly versed in the other tradition and only then sought victory; concealing his identity and changing his robes, for nine years he lived among the Huangzhong Daoists, serving as a Daoist leader, thoroughly examining the bogus arts of the Three Zhangs and personally performing the talismans, jiao rituals, and petitions, completely penetrating their origins before returning to the root and composing treatises, like a fierce beast subduing itself to the cage).

88.18

蠢蠢 (Pronounced 春 + 允 fanqie. The commentary to the *Mao Commentary to the Odes* says: "蠢蠢 means insects squirming." The *Shuowen* states it takes the insects classifier [䖵] and is phonetic in 春; 䖵 has the sound of 昆).

It takes the mountain classifier [山] and is phonetic in 顛. The standard form of 顛 takes 頁 on the right and 真 on the left; the vulgar form using two 眞 is an error. The lower character is pronounced 直 + 類 fanqie. The *Erya* says: "墜 means to fall down." The *Shuowen* says: "To drop from a high place." It takes the mound classifier [𨸏] and is phonetic in [隊-(阿-可)]; commonly adding the earth classifier [土] is also acceptable).

88.21

It takes the head classifier [頁] and hair classifier [彡]. Nowadays popular usage also takes the long hair classifier [髟] to make 鬚. The biography's writing it as 鬢 is incorrect in both cases. 頁 has the sound of 賢 + 結 fanqie; 髟 has the sound of 必 + 遙 fanqie).

The text of the *Odes* has the same meaning. It takes the heart classifier [心] and is phonetic in 惠. In ancient script it is written 惠, taking 芔; 惠 is pronounced with the fanqie sound 上 + 緝).
