The Compiled Annotations of Dao De Jing

Compiled by Peng Si of the Song Dynasty.

This is a supplementary work to his Daode Zhenjing Jizhu (Collected Commentaries on the Classic of the Dao and Virtue): consisting of one volume, it is included in the Yujue (Jade Commentary) category of the Dongshen Section of the Daozang (Daoist Canon).
The Compiled Annotations of Dao De Jing
This book separately records textual collations, phonetic annotations, and glosses on words and phrases related to the Laozi by chapter.

The edition it is based on is not the Northern Song Zhenghe Imperial Commentary version. Among the phonetic explanations and glosses quoted from various scholars, besides Wang Bi, Lu Deming and Heshi Gong, most of the others are also scholars from the Song Dynasty. From this book, one can roughly understand the version status of the Laozi during the Song Dynasty.
