…go to the Wan River and make the exorcism.155 1 153 Schuessler (2007: 594) defines yuan 爰 as “slow, delay” (related to huan 緩). 154 Divinations (1)-(2), dated Dinghai, are almost certainly abbreviated accounts of 247.14: 丁 亥卜: 子金其往,亡災 “Divined on Dinghai: If lord Jin goes, there will be no calamity.” If this synchronization is indeed correct, and the matching dates strongly imply that it is, then all of the other instances of divination records in the simple form of “preface + 子金” should be read as though they were abbreviations of divinations about whether or not lord Jin would encoun- ter any harm while abroad.
