Commentary
[As the relation of qualifier and qualified is implied and understood, there has been no change of the third case-ending found in the 蝉奴迟谤补 into the first case-ending in the explanatory sentence shown above. From the apposition of the two words to each other itself, it is understood. As the words 惫颈艣别峁峁嘺 and 惫颈艣别峁补 are not used in the sentence at all, these two words found in the 蝉奴迟谤补 are not imitations. Therefore, the third case-ending of the 蝉奴迟谤补 has not been changed into the first case-ending in the sentence. In such cases, there is no question of change of case-ending.]
This analogy is now applied to the case under discussion.
