Wu Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Jade (yù) 璞 Kangxi strokes: 17 Page 742, Entry 09 Guangyun (Guangyun), Yunhui (Yunhui): Pronounced pu. Zhengyun (Zhengyun): Pronounced pu. Yupian (Yupian): Jade that has not yet been processed. Zengyun (Zengyun): Jade that has not yet been polished. Yunhui (Yunhui): Raw jade. Laozi: Dao De Jing (Daodejing): When raw jade is scattered, it is made into vessels. Also a surname. Zhengzitong (Zhengzitong): Ming Dynasty official Pu Jun. Also, in rhyme supplementation (yunbu): rhyming as pu. Sima Biao: Poem Presented to Shan Tao (Zeng Shan Tao Shi): Bian He lies hidden in the darkness of the underworld, who can bear witness to this rare raw jade? I wish for the divine dragon to arrive, to radiate light and reveal the torch. Zhengzitong (Zhengzitong): Some say that the character for raw jade originally had the pronunciations of both pu and pu, not merely a rhyming variation. Zhengyun (Zhengyun) included this character under the entry for the rhyme category six yao, but one source omitted it, which is an error.
