95.161

之轡 ('Reins'; the fanqie is 悲 + 媚 [pèi]. Gu Yewang says: 'Reins are that by which horses in a chariot are controlled.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'Horse reins; composed with "silk" (絲) and 軎. 軎 is the same as 轝; 軎 has the sound 衛 [wèi], meaning the iron cap on the axle-head of a chariot.' The collected editions have 轡, which is erroneous.)
