PLATE XXYV, 
Remarks. 
Shuo Wén: 
following.’’ 
“*Enduring, 
Blended lines. Related to 
Nos. 278, 279, g. v. 
One or more birds over fire. 
Also tortoise over fire. 
Hands opposed, or strug- 
gling for a staff or spear. 
Shuo Wén: ‘Split wood. 
From half of tree.”’ 
Possibly palatable (sweet) 
food retained in the mouth. 
Origin obscure. Refers to 
melancholy of autumn. 
Significance obscure. 
Ghost or other — strange 
figure. Allied to No. 354. 
Hands lifting a weight. 
Supposed by Chinese to be 
two men lying back to back (a 
guess). 
Depicts beast’s claw out- 
spread. 
Three birds ona tree. (Now 
contracted. ) 
Some prolific creature like 
the frog or scorpion. (Not 
related to its radical. ) 
complex symbol of many forms. It seems to be composed of # 1a ““old,”? *K yung ‘perpetual’? and QW k‘ou mouth. The 
f the two first is apparent, but that of ‘mouth’? is obscure. 
nically derived from the sign for ‘tree’? (No, 97), Not the reverse of ‘‘bed’’ (No, 154), as often hastily inferred.
