    置,寘

    1. WL claim that zhi4 寘 is always literal and physical. This is not so, since there are several exaples like this:

    SHI 201.2

    將恐將懼, When there is to be fear and dread,

    寘予于懷: You place me in the (bosom:) heart,

    將安將樂, When there is to be peace and joy,

    棄予如遺。 you cast me off and throw me away.
