Eulogised him (誄焉: the first character is pronounced 律 [lǜ] + 委 [wěi] fanqie. The Rites of Zhou says: 'A 誄 is an account of deeds; it accumulates words describing the virtuous conduct of a person during their life.' Zheng's commentary on the Book of Rites says: '誄 means to accumulate.' The Shuowen says: 'A posthumous title.' It takes 言 as semantic classifier and 耒 as phonetic, 耒 being pronounced 雷 [léi] + 會 [huì] fanqie).
