《颅囟经》二卷,不着撰人姓名,考历代史志,自唐《艺文志》已上,皆不载其名,至
宋《艺文志》始有师巫《颅囟经》二卷。近世别无传本,惟《永乐大典》内载有此书,并载无
名氏序文一篇,称王母金文黄帝得之升天,秘藏金匮,名曰内经,百姓莫可见之,后穆王贤
士师巫,于崆峒山得而释之云云。宋志所题师巫与序文相合,殆即是本。又宋史《方技传》
云∶“钱乙始以《颅囟经》著名,至京师视长公主女疾,授翰林医学。”按《郡斋读书志》
有《钱氏小儿方》八卷,称乙最工疗婴孺病。盖乙著名幼科,其原实出于《颅囟经》矣。此经
疑唐末人所作,其曰师巫,盖本于《黄帝内传》。而《内经》第七卷,王冰注亦有师氏藏之
一语,故托名师巫,以神其说耳。其曰《颅囟经》者,按《说文》颅,顼颅,首骨,从页卢
声。囟,头会脑盖也,象形。HT 或从肉宰,HT 古文囟字,《唐韵》囟,先进切,今作囟者,俗体字也。又《说文》
云,儿,孺子也。从儿,象小儿头囟未合。此盖以儿之初生颅
囟未合,证治不同,故取以名其书欤。首论脉候至数,次论受病之由,与疗救之术,皆深中
肯綮。又论火丹证治,分别十五名目,皆发前人之所未言。其杂证所列,亦多秘方,要必别
有所传耳。但沉HT 已久,今幸四库全书馆,从《永乐大典》所载,裒辑成书,根据《宋志》
旧目,析为二卷。 多方托友,亟录以归,藏诸书阁,倘得好事者付梓,以广其传,则诚
求保赤,其利甚溥,不独为是书幸也。

《颅囟经》共二卷,不著作者姓名,考证历代史志,自唐代《艺文志》以上,都不记载其名,直到宋代《艺文志》才有师巫所著《颅囟经》二卷。近代别无传本,只有《永乐大典》内载有此书,并载有一篇无名氏序文,称王母金文黄帝得之升天,秘藏金匮,名为内经,百姓不可见,后来周穆王的贤士师巫,在崆峒山得到并解读它云云。宋志所题师巫与序文相合,大概就是这个版本。又宋史《方技传》说:“钱乙开始凭借《颅囟经》著名,到京师诊治长公主的女儿病,被授予翰林医学。”按《郡斋读书志》有《钱氏小儿方》八卷,称钱乙最擅长治疗婴幼儿疾病。大概钱乙因儿科著名,其源头实际上出自《颅囟经》。这部经疑为唐末人所作,其称师巫,大概本于《黄帝内传》。而《内经》第七卷,王冰注也有师氏收藏的一句话,所以托名师巫,以神化其说法罢了。其称《颅囟经》,按《说文》解释,颅,是头骨,从页卢声。囟,是头顶脑盖,象形字。有的写法从肉宰,是古文囟字,《唐韵》中囟读先进切,现在写的囟是俗体字。又《说文》说,儿,是幼儿。从儿,象小儿头囟未闭合的样子。这大概是认为婴儿初生时颅囟未闭合,证治不同,所以取此名作为书名吗?首论脉候至数,次论患病的原因,与治疗急救之术,都切中要害。又论火丹证治,分为十五个名目,都是前人所未言及的。其杂证所列,也多是秘方,必定另有传承。但沉埋已久,如今幸得四库全书馆,从《永乐大典》所载,汇编成书,根据《宋志》旧目,析分为二卷。多方托朋友,急忙抄录回来,藏在书阁,倘若得好事者付梓刊印,以广其流传,那确实是求保婴儿健康,其利益非常广泛,不只是这本书的幸运啊。

The *Lunxin Jing* (Classic of the Fontanelle) consists of two volumes, with no author named. Examining historical records from the Tang Dynasty *Yiwen Zhi* onwards, the name is not recorded. It was only in the Song Dynasty *Yiwen Zhi* that Shi Wu’s (Sorcerer’s) *Lunxin Jing*, two volumes, appeared. In recent times, no other copies exist, except for its inclusion in the *Yongle Dadian*. It also contains a preface by an anonymous author, stating that the Queen Mother’s golden text was obtained by the Yellow Emperor upon ascending to heaven, secretly stored in a golden casket, named *Neijing* (Inner Classic), invisible to common people. Later, King Mu of Zhou’s wise scholar Shi Wu found and interpreted it on Kongtong Mountain. The Shi Wu mentioned in the Song志 matches the preface, likely being this version. Furthermore, the *Song History · Biographies of Technicians* states: “Qian Yi first became famous through the *Lunxin Jing*. He went to the capital to treat the illness of the Eldest Princess’s daughter and was appointed Hanlin Medical Officer.” According to *Junzhai Dushu Zhi*, there are eight volumes of *Qian Shi Xiaoer Fang* (Dr. Qian’s Pediatric Formulas), noting that Qian Yi was most skilled in treating infant diseases. Presumably, Qian Yi’s fame in pediatrics actually stems from the *Lunxin Jing*. This classic is suspected to be written by someone at the end of the Tang Dynasty. Its reference to Shi Wu likely originates from the *Huangdi Neizhuan* (Inner Biography of the Yellow Emperor). Wang Bing’s commentary on Volume 7 of the *Neijing* also mentions “stored by the Shi clan,” hence the pseudonym Shi Wu to mystify the theory. Regarding the title *Lunxin Jing*: according to *Shuowen Jiezi*, *Lu* refers to the skull bone, phonetic component *Lu*. *Xin* refers to the fontanelle/brain cover, pictographic. Some variants write it with the flesh radical, which is the ancient form. In *Tang Yun*, *Xin* is pronounced *xianjin qie*; the current character *Xin* is a vulgar variant. Also, *Shuowen* says *Er* means toddler, derived from *Er* (child), picturing the unfused fontanelle of a small child. This book likely takes its name because infants’ initial fontanelles are unfused, and their diagnosis and treatment differ. The beginning discusses pulse patterns and frequencies, followed by causes of disease and rescue techniques, all hitting the mark accurately. It also discusses fire erysipelas treatments, categorizing fifteen types, revealing what predecessors had not said. The miscellaneous cases listed contain many secret formulas, implying distinct transmission. Though buried for a long time, it is fortunate that the Siku Quanshu Bureau compiled it from the *Yongle Dadian*, splitting it into two volumes based on the old Song catalog. Through friends, I hurriedly copied it back and stored it in my library. If enthusiasts print it, spreading its transmission, it would truly benefit infant health preservation, bringing great utility, benefiting not just this book.
