Cinders and ashes (煨𱫮: the first [character is pronounced] wei + hui fan; the Guangya says that wei (煨) is like smoldering ashes. The second is si + jin fan; Du's commentary on the Zuo zhuan says that jin (𱫮) means the remnants of a fire; the Tang imperial preface to the Xiaojing says, 'before turning to cinders and ashes'; the Shuowen jiezi says that wei is composed of 'fire' [火] with wei [畏] phonetic; jin is correctly written 𱫮, while the compiled text writes the popular character 燼).
