2.44

熙怡 (The first character is pronounced with the fanqie *x-*, [xi], from 虛 and 之. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie *y-*, [yi], from 與 and 之. The *Shuowen* states: '熙怡 means harmonious and joyful.' The *Fangyan* states: '怡 means joy; in the Xiang-Tan region they say 紛怡, or 熈怡.' Sūtras sometimes write 嬉, with the same sound; the *Shuowen* states: '嬉 means amusement'; the *Cangjiepian* states: 'It means to laugh'; these are not its usage here.)
