祭祠 (The upper character is 子 + 例 with fanqie. The Qieyun says: 'To offer sacrificial food; to sacrifice.' The Erya says: 'Sacrificing to Heaven by burning firewood.' The Shuowen says: 'The character is formed with a hand holding meat to present in sacrifice (示).' The lower character is pronounced 詞. The Erya says: 'A spring sacrifice is called cí.' Guo's commentary says: 'Cí is like feeding (shí); pronounced 飤').
