1 Yen Yuan asked how the government of a country should be administered.

2 The Master said, ‘Follow the seasons of Hsia.

3 ‘Ride in the state carriage of Yin.

4 ‘Wear the ceremonial cap of Chau.

5 ‘Let the music be the Shao with its pantomimes.

6 Banish the songs of Chang, and keep far from specious talkers. The songs of Chang are licentious; specious talkers are dangerous.’
