Note 362 — Chapter XIII

Reading edition

i yu ch´uang chin wu sê hua chê. The expression ch´uang chin, which also occurs in the Ko ku yao lun, apparently carries the idea of gilding, though its literal meaning ("originate gold") is very vague. Bushell renders the phrase "pencilled with designs in gold," and Julien "rehaussée d'or."
