Do not have words (with) Pou. 1 417 Emended by Sun Yabing 2011a: 43, note 4. 418 Divinations (3)-(4) appear to be connected with HYZ 28.1-3. However, the use of ten-day counts in the prefaces to all of these divinations, and not a fuller sixty-day count, make a con- firmation uncertain. If they did form a set, then “Archer-Lord Dian” here and “Ya-officer Dian” there (28.1) would have to have been two people from the same place/lineage. If they did not form a set and were made at different times, then this leaves open the possibility that they referred to the same person who held these two positions in service to the Shang king at differ- ent times (Lin Yun 2007). : This compound pictograph depicts a seated man 卩 + a single stroke that signifies a cushion or mat. I read it as a variant spelling of an 安/ ; compare (Daxingzhuang 大辛莊 T2302[5]B:1), (HJ 5373), and (HJ 37568). I translate the word in its primary sense, but an alternative is that it meant to stop and take rest or to take safety. HYZ 286 | 275
