Duheng 杜衡 (The first character has the fanqie phonetic spelling [d- + -ù > d-] tú gǔ 反. The second character has the fanqie phonetic spelling [h- + -éng > h-] hù gēng 反. The Shanhaijing says: "On the Mount of the Heavenly Emperor there is a plant whose shape is like the mallow and whose scent is like the [菧-氐+(林/糸)]wu, named duheng." Guo Pu's commentary says: "An aromatic plant." The Bencao says: "The [菧-氐+(林/糸)]wu is the shechuang (Cnidium monnieri)"; it has the sound mí wú 縻無. In some editions duheng 杜衡 is written as 杜衡, which is an error and completely discordant).
