薏苡 (The upper character is pronounced yi; the lower character is pronounced yi. Gu Yewang says: "Namely, Job's tears [千珠]." The Bencao says: "Job's tears [薏茨] are balanced in nature; mainly treating muscle and bone cramps where they cannot stretch or bend; it also replenishes qi." Both characters are classified under 'grass' [草], with 意 and 以 as phonetic components).
