鷦鷯(上即霄反爾雅云挑蟲鷦郭注桃雀也俗呼巧婦下洛簫反切韻云鷦鷯小鳥也莊子云鷦鷯巢於深林不過一枝也說文云二字竝從鳥焦尞皆形聲字也)。
Wren (鷦鷯: the first character is [pronounced] 即霄 [jiāo]; the Erya says: "The tiáochóng is the jiāo." Guo's commentary says: "The peach sparrow; commonly called the skillful woman." The second character is [pronounced] 洛簫 [liáo]; the Qieyun says: "The jiāoliáo is a small bird." Zhuangzi says: "The wren nesting in the deep forest occupies no more than a single branch." The Shuowen says: "Both characters are composed of 鳥 with 焦 and 尞, which are both phonetic").
