93.11

砥礪 'Whetstones' (The first character is pronounced like 止 [*tśiX*], the second like 例 [*ljieH*]. Kong [Anguo]'s commentary to the Book of Documents states: 'A whetstone (砥) is finer than a coarse grindstone (礪); both are grinding stones.' The Classic of Mountains and Seas states: 'It comes out from Mount Yanzhi, where there are many such stones.').
