水星（水之精其色黑其性智四時皆出入光明潤澤則國豊民樂不尒則水旱作\[海-母+小\]常以四仲見一年一周天去日極遠不過二十六度故人多不見凡三十三年一百四終七十四度晨見二十六度應見不見）。

> Mercury (水星: the essence of water; its colour is black; its nature is wisdom; it appears and disappears throughout the four seasons; when it is bright and moist, the state is prosperous and the people are joyful; otherwise, floods and droughts cause disaster; it normally appears in the middle month of each of the four seasons; it circles the heavens once in one year; its maximum distance from the sun does not exceed twenty-six degrees, so people rarely see it; in thirty-three years it completes 104 cycles, appearing seventy-four times at dawn, and twenty-six times when it should appear it does not).
