雉堞（上池履反字書云雉𨺙也公羊傳云五板為堵五堵為雉百雉為城何休注云二萬尺也考聲禮記並云天子城千雉葢受百雉之城十也公侯城百雉伯城七十雉子男五十雉但諸侯之城缺其南以授過也下徒頰反杜注左傳云堞者城上女牆也說文女垣也從土枼聲也）。

> 雉堞 (parapets and battlements: the first character is \*ch\[í\]-l\[ǚ\]\* fan; character dictionaries state: “A 雉 is an \[earthen\] wall.” The Gongyang zhuan states: “Five planks make a 堵 \[\*dǔ\*\]; five 堵 \[\*dǔ\*\] make a 雉 \[\*zhì\*\]; one hundred 雉 \[\*zhì\*\] make a city wall.” He Xiu's commentary says: “It is twenty thousand feet.” The Kaosheng and Liji both state: “The Son of Heaven's city wall is one thousand 雉 \[\*zhì\*\]”—meaning it holds ten of the one-hundred-雉 city walls. “A duke's or marquis's wall is one hundred 雉; an earl's is seventy 雉; a viscount's or baron's is fifty 雉. However, the walls of the feudal lords omit the south wall in order to submit their transgressions \[for inspection\].” The second character is \*t\[ú\]-ji\[á\]\* fan; Du's commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: “A 堞 \[\*dié\*\] is the female parapet (crenel) on top of a city wall.” The Shuowen jiezi says: “A low crenel wall.” It is classified under 土 \[earth\] with 枼 \[\*yè\*\] phonetic).
