Preening the quills (理翮: the first character has the fanqie 良 + 始; the character dictionary says, “To smooth out.” Qieyun says, “To arrange and tend to.” Shuowen says, “It takes 玉 with 里 for phonetic.” The second character has the fanqie 行 + 格; Gu Yewang says, “The quills of bird feathers.” Shuowen says, “It takes 羽 with 鬲 for phonetic; 鬲 is pronounced 革”).
