五菜为充 吴云。充实于脏腑也。
或急 简按二字。王不释其义。诸家亦然。考前文无物性急者。疑是衍文。高特注云。或急者。肝
苦急也。兼言或急。则心或苦缓。脾或苦湿。肾或苦燥。肺或苦气上逆。皆在其中。此说傅会不可从。
遵循四时五行规律进行治疗。志云：效法四时五行，制定救治的方法。高云：延请医生诊治。
五行，就是金、木、水、火、土。《白虎通》说：所谓“行”，是想要说明天体运行之气的含义。《汉书·艺文志》说：五行，是五常（仁义礼智信）的形体与气机。《释名》说：五行，是五种气，在其对应的方位各自施行。《尚书正义》说：五行，就是五材（金木水火土），说这五种物质各有才干。称为“行”的，如果在天上则是五气流行，在地上则是世人所使用的事物。
突然听到这些。马云：卒，意为尽。《素问》和《灵枢》中，“愿卒闻之”的说法很多，其中的意义仿照此类。
肝苦于急迫。吴云：肝为将军之官，其志为怒而表现为急迫，急迫则会自我伤害而感到痛苦。适宜食用甘味食物来缓和它，那么急迫的情况就可以平复。马云：凡是饮食药物都是如此。
心苦于弛缓。吴云：心以长养万物为职能，其志为喜而表现为弛缓，弛缓则心气散逸，自我伤害其神志。急切地应当食用酸味食物来收敛它。
脾苦于湿邪。吴云：脾以制约水湿为事务，喜欢干燥而厌恶潮湿，湿气过盛则会伤害脾土。适宜食用苦味食物来燥湿。
肺苦于气机上逆。吴云：肺为清虚之脏，行使降下的命令，如果气机上逆，则肺感到痛苦。急切地应当食用苦味食物，以泄降肺气。
肾苦于燥，急切地食用辛味食物以滋润它。张云：肾为水脏，藏精。阴病者苦于燥，所以适宜食用辛味食物以滋润它。大概辛味从金化生，是水之母。辛味能够开启腠理，促使津液生成，是因为辛能通气。水中含有真气，只有辛味能通达它。气至则水亦至，所以可以滋润肾的燥热。志云：以上论述五脏所主之时日，以及五苦五味；以下论述五脏的疾病，有轻重变化之时日，以及五欲、五补、五泻。简按：王好古《汤液本草》中有五脏苦欲补泻药味的体例，李中梓《医宗必读》中有苦欲补泻论，应当查考。
开启腠理，促使津液生成，通气。滑云：这九个字，怀疑原本是注文。
在冬季持守。汪机云：我认为执持坚定。犹如说无增无减，从而平定。
下晡（傍晚）。《玉篇》：晡，指申时。简按：《史记·天官书》记载，从早晨到吃饭时间，吃饭时间到日昃（下午三点左右），日昃到日落前一段时间，这段时间到下晡，下晡到日落。知道下晡是在晡时之后，日落之前。吴认为是申时和酉时，是正确的。
急切地食用辛味食物以疏散它。吴云：肝木喜欢条达舒畅，而厌恶抑郁，疏散它就能条达，所以食用辛味食物以疏散它。
用辛味补之，用酸味泻之。吴云：顺应其本性为补，违背其本性为泻。肝木喜欢辛味疏散，而厌恶酸味收敛，所以辛味为补，酸味为泻。简按：辛是金味，金克木，按理辛在肝脏应为泻，却说用辛补之，为什么呢？大概这一节专门就五脏的本性而言补泻，不拘泥于五行相克的常理。下文心的咸味也是同样的道理。
心欲柔软。吴云：心为火脏，心病则变得刚燥。适宜食用咸味食物以软化它。大概咸味从水化生，所以能济助其刚燥使其柔软。
用咸味补之，用甘味泻之。吴云：心火喜欢柔软而厌恶弛缓，所以咸味为补，甘味为泻。马云：这是顺着其本性来治疗罢了。
温食饱食。吴认为“温”作“湿”解，注解说湿食，指水果之类。高同意此说，认为湿食是水湿性质的食物。张云：“温”言非热，防止滞涩。简按这两种说法不清楚哪一个是正确的。
日昃（太阳偏西）。《书经·无逸疏》：昃，也叫𣆪，说太阳倾斜而下，指未时。熊音：𣆪，音迭，即日昃。简按吴云：日𣆪，指戌时。张云：日𣆪曰𣆪。都错了。大概𣆪是昃的讹字。
下晡静。简按根据前后文的体例，应当是说“日中静”。王注一本或说“日𣆪静”，却似乎有理。然而经文体例不一，往往有这种情况，姑且沿用旧注。
夜半静。简按根据前后文的体例，应当是说“日𣆪静”。
肺欲收敛。张云：肺对应秋气，主收敛，所以适宜食用酸味食物以收敛它。
𦈡𦈡（形容声音或状态）。张云：𦈡，音翠。𦈡𦈡，音哀。𦈡𦈡，指烧爆之物。《韵会》：𦈡，烧也。《荀子·解蔽》注：𦈡，灼也。《广韵》：热甚也。
肾欲坚固。张云：肾主闭藏，气贵周密，所以肾欲坚固。适宜食用苦味食物以坚固它。高云：肾病则水泛滥，所以肾欲坚固。苦为火味，所以能坚固它。
至于所生而持守。于，《甲乙经》作“其”，不对。
𥇢𥇢（目不明）。熊音：𥇢，乎光反，眼睛看不清楚。
胁部支撑胀满。《国语》注：支，拄也。吴云：支满，指两胁支离而胀满。志云：支满，指少阴的支络，在胁下满痛。都错了。
肩甲。马云：甲，同胛。
舌下有血者。张云：心主舌，所以取舌下血，以泻其实邪。简按《甲乙经》没有“舌下”二字，接近正确。
其变病。吴云：如笑不休之类。张云：谓病属少阴，而证候有异于前述说法的。简按王注解释为呕吐变症，不恰当。
𧶘中。马云：手少阴的𧶘中穴。（源于王注）张云：𧶘，同隙。高云：其变病者，言起初病在心包经脉，现在变病为太阳之孙络，应当刺𧶘中，并取其血。𧶘中，足太阳膀胱经的委中穴，乃中央之合穴。简按据《刺腰痛论》，𧶘中即委中。《刺疟论》太阳疟，刺𧶘中。《甲乙经》作𧶘中。王引《黄帝中诰图经》云：委主之。古法以委中为𧶘中也。似乎高的注释不可废弃。
善𤸇（抽搐）。《甲乙经》作善𤸇。张云：𤸇，手足掉掣（抽搐）。简按《玉机真脏论》云：筋脉相引而急，病名曰𤸇。𤸇，同𤸇。《甲乙经》添𤸇字，似乎不对。
少阴血者。张云：少阴肾脉。脾主湿，肾主水，水能助湿伤脾，所以当取少阴之血，以泄其寒实。如《厥病》篇，治脾心痛者，也取肾经的然谷、太溪穴，义理与此相同。简按马、吴都依从王注，觉得恰当。
尻、阴、股、膝、髀、足皆痛。马本，“阴股”二字连读，而注文则“尻”、“阴”、“股”各一字句，不知道哪个正确。吴云：肺为清虚之脏，主呼出而升阳，肺病则清阳陷于下部，不能自升，邪气实而为痛。简按马、张仍依王义，现在遵从他们。
足太阳之外，厥阴内血者。《甲乙经》，“内”下有“少阴”二字。张云：外，言前也。内，言后也。简按《甲乙经》增“少阴”二字，义理尤其明白。
寝汗（睡中出汗）。张云：这是肾经的实邪。肾主五液，在心为汗，而肾邪侮之，心气内微，所以为寝汗。如《脉要精微论》说：阴气有余，为多汗身寒，就是说的这个。志云：太阳之气司表，而下出于膀胱，经气逆则表气虚，所以寝汗出而恶风。
憎风。《说文》：憎，恶也。王云：憎，谓深恶之。可疑。
粳米。《灵枢·五味》篇，作𩜾米饭。𩜾，粳同。
小豆。《五味》篇，作麻。
藿。《说文》：藿，𦋐之少也。《仪礼·公食大夫礼》注：藿，豆叶也。
黄黍。张云：即糯小米，北方谓之黄米。简按《本草》有丹黍无黄黍。《齐民要术》引郭义恭《广志》云：有湿屯黄黍盖。此谓黍中之黄者。《金匮真言论》以黍为心之谷者，乃丹黍耳。《农政全书》云：古所谓黍，今亦称黍，或称黄米，即与张所指同。
毒药攻邪。郑玄注《周礼》云：毒药，药之辛苦者。药之物恒多毒。《书》曰：药不瞑眩，厥疾不瘳。贾公彦云：药之无毒亦聚之。但药物多毒，故曰毒药。王应电云：毒药，得天地之偏气，寒热之性过甚者也。人身有不和之气，须以偏胜之物攻之，乃得其平。
五菜为充。吴云：充实于脏腑也。
或急。简按这两个字，王注不解释其义，诸家也是如此。考前文无物性急者，疑是衍文。高特注云：或急者，肝苦急也。兼言或急，则心或苦缓，脾或苦湿，肾或苦燥，肺或苦气上逆，皆在其中。此说傅会不可从。
Treatment follows the laws of the four seasons and the Five Phases (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water). Zhi Yun: Model after the four seasons and the Five Phases to formulate rescue methods. Gao Yun: Invite physicians for treatment.
The Five Phases are Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. *Baihu Tong* states: The term "Xing" (Movement/Phase) intends to explain the meaning of the movement of Qi in Heaven. *Han Shu · Yi Wen Zhi* states: The Five Phases are the formative Qi of the Five Constants (Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, Trustworthiness). *Shi Ming* states: The Five Phases are five types of Qi, each acting in its corresponding direction. *Shangshu Zhengyi* states: The Five Phases are the Five Materials (Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth), saying that these five have their respective capabilities. They are called "Movement" because if in Heaven, they are the circulation of the five Qi; if on Earth, they are what people use.
Suddenly hearing this. Ma Yun: "Cu" means complete/exhaustive. In *Suwen* and *Ling shu*, there are many instances of "willing to hear completely," with meanings following this pattern.
The Liver suffers from tension/spasm (Ji). Wu Yun: The Liver is the official of the General, its emotion is anger which manifests as tension. Tension harms itself and causes suffering. It is appropriate to eat sweet-flavored foods to relax it, so that tension can be pacified. Ma Yun: This applies to all food and medicine.
The Heart suffers from flaccidity/laxity (Huan). Wu Yun: The Heart governs nourishment and growth, its emotion is joy which manifests as laxity. Laxity leads to the dissipation of Heart Qi and self-harm to the Shen (Spirit). One should urgently consume sour-flavored foods to astringe it.
The Spleen suffers from dampness (Shi). Wu Yun: The Spleen's task is to control water. It prefers dryness and dislikes dampness. Excessive dampness damages Spleen Earth. It is appropriate to consume bitter-flavored foods to dry it.
The Lung suffers from rebellious Qi ascending (Qi Shang Ni). Wu Yun: The Lung is a clear and empty organ, issuing commands to descend. If Qi rebels upward, the Lung suffers. One should urgently consume bitter-flavored foods to drain/rebel the Lung Qi downward.
The Kidney suffers from dryness; urgently consume pungent-flavored foods to moisten it. Zhang Yun: The Kidney is the Water Organ, storing Essence. Yin diseases suffer from dryness, so it is appropriate to consume pungent flavors to moisten. Pungent flavor transforms from Metal, which is the mother of Water. It can open the Cou Li (pores/skin texture) and produce Jin Ye (body fluids) because pungency can move Qi. There is true Qi within Water, only reached by pungency. When Qi arrives, Water also arrives, thus it can moisten the Kidney's dryness. Zhi Yun: The above discusses the days governed by the five Zang organs and the five sufferings/five flavors. The following discusses diseases of the five Zang organs, including times of severity/mildness, and the five desires, five tonifications, and five purgations. Jian An: Wang Haogu's *Tangye Bencao* has examples of drug flavors for tonifying/purging the five Zang based on their sufferings/desires. Li Zhongzi's *Yi Zong Bi Du* has a treatise on suffering/desire tonification/purgation; this should be consulted.
Opening Cou Li, producing Jin Ye, moving Qi. Hua Yun: These nine characters are suspected to be originally a commentary note.
Maintained in Winter. Wang Ji Yun: I believe this means firm adherence. Like saying no addition or subtraction, thereby achieving stability.
Xia Bu (Late afternoon). *Yu Pian*: Bu refers to the Shen hour (3-5 PM). Jian An: *Shi Ji · Tian Guan Shu* records: From dawn to meal time, meal time to Ri Ze (sun tilting), Ri Ze to before sunset, this period to Xia Bu, Xia Bu to sunset. Thus, Xia Bu is after the Bu hour and before sunset. Wu considers it Shen and You hours, which is correct.
Urgently consume pungent-flavored foods to disperse it. Wu Yun: Liver Wood likes free flow and hates depression. Dispersing it allows free flow, hence consuming pungent flavors to disperse.
Use pungent flavor to tonify, sour flavor to purge. Wu Yun: Following its nature is tonification; opposing its nature is purgation. Liver Wood likes pungent dispersal and hates sour astringency. Thus, pungent is tonification, sour is purgation. Jian An: Pungent is a Metal flavor. Metal overcomes Wood, so logically Pungent in the Liver should be purgation. Why does it say use Pungent to tonify? This section specifically discusses tonification/purgation based on the intrinsic nature of the five Zang organs, not bound by the constant rule of Five Phase overcoming. The same applies to the Heart's salty flavor below.
The Heart desires softness/pliability. Wu Yun: The Heart is a Fire organ. Heart disease makes it rigid and dry. It is appropriate to consume salty-flavored foods to soften it. Salty flavor transforms from Water, thus it can mitigate rigidity and dryness to make it soft.
Use salty flavor to tonify, sweet flavor to purge. Wu Yun: Heart Fire likes softness and hates laxity. Thus, salty is tonification, sweet is purgation. Ma Yun: This is treating according to its nature.
Warm food and full meals. Wu interprets "Wen" (warm) as "Shi" (wet/damp), noting that wet food refers to fruits etc. Gao agrees, defining wet food as watery/damp foods. Zhang Yun: "Wen" means not hot, preventing stagnation. Jian An: Unclear which explanation is correct.
Ri Ze (Sun tilting). *Shangshu · Wu Yi Shu*: Ze, also called [character], means the sun tilts down, referring to the Wei hour (1-3 PM). Xiong pronunciation: [Character], sound Die, means Ri Ze. Jian An: Wu says Ri Ze is Xu hour. Zhang says Ri Ze is [character]. Both are wrong. Probably [character] is an error for Ze.
Quiet at Xia Bu. Jian An: Based on context, it should say "Quiet at midday." Wang's commentary mentions a version saying "Quiet at [character]," which seems reasonable. However, the text varies often like this, so we retain the old commentary.
Quiet at midnight. Jian An: Based on context, it should say "Quiet at [character]."
The Lung desires consolidation/astringency. Zhang Yun: The Lung corresponds to Autumn Qi, governing consolidation. Thus, it is appropriate to consume sour-flavored foods to consolidate it.
[Characters describing sound/state]. Zhang Yun: [Character], sound Cui. [Character][Character], sound Ai. [Character][Character] refers to roasted/burst items. *Yun Hui*: [Character] means roast. *Xun Zi · Jie Bi* commentary: [Character] means scorch. *Guang Yun*: Extreme heat.
The Kidney desires firmness/stability. Zhang Yun: The Kidney governs closure and storage, Qi must be dense and secure, thus the Kidney desires firmness. It is appropriate to consume bitter-flavored foods to firm it. Gao Yun: Kidney disease leads to water overflow, thus the Kidney desires firmness. Bitter is a Fire flavor, thus it can firm it.
Regarding the generation and maintenance. In *Jia Yi Jing*, "Yu" is written as "Qi", which is incorrect.
[Character meaning unclear vision]. Xiong pronunciation: [Character], sound Hu Guang Fan, means unclear vision.
Fullness and distension in the hypochondrium. *Guo Yu* commentary: Zhi means prop/support. Wu Yun: Zhi Man means the two hypochondria feel supported and full. Zhi Yun: Zhi Man refers to the collateral branches of Shaoyin being full and painful in the hypochondrium. Both are wrong.
Pain under the hypochondrium. *Jia Yi Jing* writes "Pain in both hypochondria".
Shoulder blade. Ma Yun: Jia is the same as Jia (shoulder blade).
Those with blood under the tongue. Zhang Yun: The Heart governs the tongue, so take blood from under the tongue to drain excess. Jian An: *Jia Yi Jing* lacks the words "under the tongue", which is closer to correctness.
Its transformed disease. Wu Yun: Such as laughing incessantly. Zhang Yun: Refers to diseases belonging to Shaoyin but presenting differently from the previous description. Jian An: Wang's interpretation as vomiting transformation is not appropriate.
[Xizhong acupoint]. Ma Yun: Hand Shaoyin's Xizhong acupoint. (Based on Wang's commentary). Zhang Yun: Xi is the same as Xi (gap). Gao Yun: For transformed diseases, it means initially the disease was in the Pericardium meridian, now transformed into the Sun branch collaterals. One should puncture Xizhong and take its blood. Xizhong is Weizhong of the Foot Taiyang Bladder Meridian, the He-Sea point of the center. Jian An: According to *Ci Yao Tong Lun*, Xizhong is Weizhong. *Ci Nu Lun* for Taiyang Malaria punctures Xizhong. *Jia Yi Jing* writes Xizhong. Wang cites *Huangdi Zhong Gao Tu Jing*: Weizhong governs it. Ancient methods consider Weizhong as Xizhong. Gao's commentary seems indispensable.
Muscle atrophy (Wei). Ma and Wu, based on Xin Zheng Jiao, change Ji (muscle) to Ji (hunger), which is correct.
Prone to [Chou/Convulsion]. *Jia Yi Jing* writes Prone to Chou. Zhang Yun: Chou means trembling and pulling of hands and feet. Jian An: *Yu Ji Zhen Zang Lun* says: Tendons and vessels pull and tighten, the disease is named Chou. Chou is the same as [Character]. *Jia Yi Jing* adding the character seems incorrect.
Shaoyin blood. Zhang Yun: Shaoyin Kidney pulse. Spleen governs dampness, Kidney governs water. Water aids dampness and damages Spleen, so one should take Shaoyin blood to drain cold-excess. As in *Jue Bing* chapter, treating Heart pain due to Spleen, one also takes Ran Gu and Tai Xi of the Kidney meridian; the principle is similar. Jian An: Ma and Wu follow Wang's commentary, which feels appropriate.
Pain in the sacrum, yin, thigh, knee, thigh bone, and foot. Ma's edition reads "Yin Gu" as two characters, while commentary treats "Kao", "Yin", "Gu" as separate. Unclear which is correct. Wu Yun: The Lung is a clear and empty organ, governing exhalation and raising Yang. Lung disease causes clear Yang to sink to the lower part, unable to rise itself, leading to pain due to pathogenic excess. Jian An: Ma and Zhang follow Wang's meaning, so we follow them.
Unable to resume breathing (Bu Neng Bao Xi). Zhang Yun: Bao means return/repeat. Unable to resume breathing means shortness of breath, difficult to connect.
Foot Taiyang exterior, Jueyin interior blood. *Jia Yi Jing* adds "Shaoyin" after "Nei" (interior). Zhang Yun: Wai (exterior) means front. Nei (interior) means back. Jian An: *Jia Yi Jing* adding "Shaoyin" makes the meaning clearer.
Night sweats (Qin Han). Zhang Yun: This is excess pathogen of the Kidney meridian. Kidney governs the five fluids; in the Heart it is sweat. Kidney pathogen insults it, Heart Qi becomes internally weak, thus night sweats. As *Mai Yao Jing Wei Lun* says: Excess Yin Qi leads to profuse sweating and cold body, which is this case. Zhi Yun: Taiyang Qi governs the exterior and descends from the Bladder. Rebellious meridian Qi leads to deficient exterior Qi, thus night sweats and aversion to wind.
Aversion to wind (Zeng Feng). *Shuo Wen*: Zeng means hate/dislike. Wang Yun: Zeng means deep dislike. Dubious.
Jing Mi (Indica rice). *Ling Shu · Wu Wei* chapter writes [Character] rice. [Character] is same as Jing.
Kui (Mallow). Agricultural book says: Kui is a yang grass, chief among hundred vegetables, preparing meals for four seasons.
Xiao Dou (Small bean). *Wu Wei* chapter writes Ma (Sesame/Hemp).
Huo (Bean leaves). *Shuo Wen*: Huo is young [Character]. *Yi Li · Gong Shi Da Fu Li* commentary: Huo is bean leaves.
Huang Shu (Yellow millet). Zhang Yun: That is glutinous small millet, called Huang Mi (yellow rice) in the north. Jian An: *Ben Cao* has Dan Shu (red millet) but no Huang Shu. *Qi Min Yao Shu* cites Guo Yigong's *Guang Zhi*: There is Shi Tun Huang Shu cover. This refers to the yellow variety of Shu. *Jin Gui Zhen Yan Lun* says Shu is the grain of the Heart, which is Dan Shu. *Nong Zheng Quan Shu* says: What ancients called Shu is now also called Shu, or Huang Mi, which matches Zhang's reference.
Poisonous drugs attack evil pathogens. Zheng Xuan's commentary on *Zhou Li*: Poisonous drugs refer to drugs that are bitter and pungent. Drugs inherently contain much toxicity. *Book of Documents* says: If drugs do not cause dizziness/toxic reaction, the severe disease will not heal.
