說文解字 - Shuowen: 《心部》惕敬也。从心易聲。

康熙字典文字版 【卯集上】【心字部】惕
〔古文〕惖【唐韻】【集韻】【韻會】【正韻】𠀤他歷切，音剔。【說文】敬也。从心易聲。　又怵惕也。憂也，懼也。　又【爾雅·釋訓】惕惕，愛也。郭註詩云，心焉惕惕。韓詩以爲悅人，故言愛也。　又疾也。【吳語】一曰惕。【註】疾也。疾速之疾。　又【說文】或作悐。【前漢·王商傳】無惕悐憂。【集韻】亦作𢡕𢞫。　又叶汀藥切，音託。【揚子·太𤣥經】心惕惕，足金舄，不志溝壑，舄音削。
考證：〔【爾雅·釋訓】惕惕，愛也。引詩陳風，心焉惕惕。韓詩以爲悅人，故言愛也。〕　謹按此註文，誤爲經文。謹將引詩陳風四字改郭註詩云。
