Mao Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Heart (xīn) 慟 Kangxi strokes: 15 Page 399, Entry 06 Tang Rhymes (Tang yun), Collected Rhymes (Ji yun), Rhyme Assembly (Yun hui), and Correct Rhymes (Zheng yun) state it is pronounced dong. To mourn or grieve excessively. Formed from the radical for heart and the phonetic element dong. Analects (Lun yu) states: The Master wept for him with deep grief. It is also pronounced tong, as in the rhyme in the Biography of Minhuai from the Book of Jin (Jin shu): Now you bear this burden, holding onto a grievance in the east. Among all those who are aware, who would not grieve and mourn?
