警寤 (Alert and awake: for the first character, fanqie 居影 [jǐng], the Kaosheng says: 'To warn and caution.' The Shuowen says: 'To awaken.' The character book says: 'To perceive and examine.' The Liji says: 'When about to ascend the hall, his voice should be raised'; Zheng's commentary explains this as warning the people inside. For the second character, fanqie 吾放 [wù], the Shuowen says: '寤 means to awaken from sleep; it is formed from an abbreviated 𮄥 with 吾 phonetic.' The vinaya text writes 驚; the Shuowen says this means a horse bolting. It also writes 窹; people of Chu use this to mean a stove. Neither is the character for 警寤.)
