In the Sound Rhymes (Jiyun), it is noted that Zhe is the ancient form of Zhe.
As recorded in the Book of Han (Hanshu), Treatise on Law: The sage has already personally embodied the nature of clarity and wisdom.
Treatise on the Five Elements: If one's vision is not clear, this is called lacking wisdom.
In the Poetry of Wei Meng in Zou: The glorious Son of Heaven is wise and benevolent.
Additionally, the Book of Han quotes the Counsels of Gao Yao: To know men is to be wise. It is also written as Zhe. The large seal script is based on the heart radical, while the small seal script is based on the mouth radical. Modern texts mostly use Zhe, as clerical script utilizes the small seal form.
