鳳凰（上馮貢反下音皇尒雅曰鷃鳳其雌凰郭璞注云瑞應鳥也許慎說文云神鳥也出東方君子之國翱翔四海之外龍文龜背鷰頷雞喙五𰐩備舉非梧桐不棲非竹實不食朝鳴曰發明晝鳴上朔夕鳴曰滿昌昏鳴曰固常夜鳴曰保長見則天下大安）。

> Fenghuang (鳳凰: the upper character has the fanqie 馮貢; the lower character is pronounced huáng. The Erya says: "The male is the fèng, its female the huáng." Guo Pu's commentary says: "An auspicious bird." Xu Shen's Shuowen says: "A divine bird, emerging from the Country of Gentlemen in the east, soaring beyond the four seas. It has dragon markings, a tortoise back, a swallow's throat, a cock's beak, and is complete in all five colours. Without a wutong tree it does not perch; without bamboo seeds it does not eat. Singing at dawn is called 'Manifesting Brightness' (發明); singing at noon is called 'Surpassing the New Moon' (上朔); singing at dusk is called 'Full Prosperity' (滿昌); singing at twilight is called 'Solid Constancy' (固常); singing at night is called 'Preserving Long Duration' (保長). When seen, the realm is at great peace").
