Hsü is composed of yen a shelter, a house, as radical, with yü to give, to yield, as phonetic. It originally meant the eastern and western walls in a house, which separated the inner from the outer portions. It then came to mean a school or asylum, and also the preface to a book. Yu see line 31. Yü see line 87. P'êng is composed of two yüeh moons, and is explained as "those who have the same principles in conduct" (line 31). According to the Shuo Wên it is said to have been a form of fêng phoenix, because the latter is the leader which all other birds follow. It is defined as "of the same bent," recalling the "idem velle atque idem nolle" of Cicero. The p'êng, who is here regarded as the elder, should be kindly, and the yu should be trustful. The colloquial for friend is p'êng yu. [For the above two lines Eitel gives , chang tsê hui, yu tsê shun, kindliness on the part of elders, submissiveness on the part of youngers, which words he rightly says are omitted in ordinary editions. But he himself omits the lines here given, which will be found in the textus receptus of Wang Hsiang and also in that of Ho Hsing-ssŭ.] Chün see line 54. Tsê see line 99. Ching is composed of the obsolete radical p'u to tap, and an obsolete character which looks like kou (line 5) but is really distinct. It means reverent; hence, the respectful attention which is due from a Prince to the representations of his Ministers and to the wishes of his subjects.
