Holding brass (執鍮: the first is the correct character 執. Lexicons say: "執 means to grasp or hold." The Shuowen says: "It has the components 丮 and 𢆎, which also provides the sound." 丮 is pronounced like 戟 [jǐ]; 𢆎 is nǚ + shè fanqie [niè]. The second character is pronounced like 偷 [tōu]. The Picang says: "鍮石 (brass) resembles gold, but is not gold." The Gujin zhengzi says: "It has the metal radical, with an abbreviated 偷 as phonetic.").
