7.107

鉞斧 [Battle-axe and axe]: The upper [character] has the fanqie 員月 (yuán + yuè = yuè); the lower has 方矩 (fāng + jǔ = fǔ). The Shangshu says, “The King held in his left hand the yellow battle-axe”; Kong's commentary says, “An axe adorned with yellow.” It derives from 金 with the phonetic 戉; 戉 has the same sound as above, deriving from 戈 with the phonetic [戉-戈] (sounded as 厥); writing it as 戊 is erroneous.
