Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FRA-GAE
FUM, or FUND HWANG , one of the four symbolical creatures which in Chinese mythology are believed to keep
watch
  and ward over the
Celestial
 
Empire
 . It was begotten by fire, was born in the Hill of the Sun's Halo, and its
body
  bears inscribed on it the five
cardinal
  virtues. It has the breast of a
goose
 , the hind-quarters of a stag, a snake's neck, a fish's tail, a fowl's forehead, a duck's down, the marks of a
dragon
 , the back of a tortoise, the face of a swallow, the
beak
  of a cock, is about six cubits high, and perches only on the woo-tung tree. The
appearance
  of Fum heralds an age of universal virtue. Its figure is that which is embroidered on the dresses of some mandarins.
