7.31

駕馭 (The upper character is 古 + 訝 [jià]; the Zishu says jià means to ride / mount; the Shijing says: "Yoking (jià) my four black-maned bays"; the lower character is 牛 + 倨 [yù]; the Qieyun says it means to drive / steer; the Shiben says: "Hai yoked cattle, and mounted and drove horses"; the Zhouli has the "five drivings": matching the harmony bells, driving along curving water, passing boundary posts and stopping, dancing through intersecting crossroads, and flanking to chase game; the Shuowen says it is formed from 馬 (horse) with 又; 又 means hand, an ideogrammic compound; the sūtra text writes 御, meaning to attend upon or to employ, which is not the character for jiàyù [to drive]).
