鍾𧆾 (The fanqie is [渠 + 呂]: jù. The Erya says: “The upright post of wood is called a jù.” Guo [Pu]’s commentary says: “It is the wood from which bells and chimes are hung.” Zheng [Xuan]’s commentary on the Liji says it means the same as Guo’s commentary on the Erya. Shuowen jiezi says it is the upright support for bells and drums, decorated as a fierce beast; it is formed from “tiger” (虍) and 異, representing its lower feet. 虍 has the fanqie [虎 + 孤]: hū. 柎 is pronounced fǔ. In the anthology it is written from 丘 as 虛, an ancient character).
