4.122

筏喻 (Raft parable: the upper character has the fanqie 房越; the Fangyan says that a bamboo raft is called a 箄, and a 箄 is called a raft; this was the common usage of Qin and Jin. Note: Temporarily tying together firewood and timbers to transport loads over water is called a raft [筏]; it is also written as 撥 or 𦪑; 箄 is pronounced 牌).
