肩吾問於連叔曰：	Jian Wu asked Lian Shu, saying,
「吾聞言於接輿，	'I heard Jie Yu talking words
大而無當，	which were great, but had nothing corresponding to them (in reality);
往而不反。	once gone, they could not be brought back.
吾驚怖其言，	I was frightened by them;
猶河漢而無極也，	they were like the Milky Way which cannot be traced to its beginning or end.
大有逕庭，	They had no connexion with one another,
不近人情焉。」	and were not akin to the experiences of men.'
連叔曰：「其言謂何哉？」	'What were his words?' asked Lian Shu,
曰：	and the other replied,
「藐姑射之山，	(He said) that 'Far away on the hill of Gu Ye
有神人居焉，	there dwelt a Spirit-like man
肌膚若冰雪，	whose flesh and skin were (smooth) as ice and (white) as snow;
淖約若處子，	that his manner was elegant and delicate as that of a virgin;
不食五穀，	that he did not eat any of the five grains,
吸風飲露。	but inhaled the wind and drank the dew;
乘雲氣，	that he mounted on the clouds,
御飛龍，	drove along the flying dragons,
而遊乎四海之外。	rambling and enjoying himself beyond the four seas;
其神凝，	that by the concentration of his spirit-like powers
使物不疵癘而年穀熟。	he could save men from disease and pestilence, and secure every year a plentiful harvest.'
吾以是狂而不信也。」	These words appeared to me wild and incoherent and I did not believe them.
連叔曰：「然，	'So it is,' said Lian Shu.
瞽者無以與乎文章之觀，	'The blind have no perception of the beauty of elegant figures,
聾者無以與乎鍾鼓之聲。	nor the deaf of the sound of bells and drums.
豈唯形骸有聾盲哉？	But is it only the bodily senses of which deafness and blindness can be predicated?
夫知亦有之。	There is also a similar defect in the intelligence;
是其言也，猶時女也。	and of this your words supply an illustration in yourself.
之人也，	That man,
之德也，	with those attributes,
將旁礡萬物，以為一世蘄乎亂，孰弊弊焉以天下為事！	though all things were one mass of confusion, and he heard in that condition the whole world crying out to him to be rectified, would not have to address himself laboriously to the task, as if it were his business to rectify the world.
之人也，物莫之傷，	Nothing could hurt that man;
大浸稽天而不溺，	the greatest floods, reaching to the sky, could not drown him,
大旱、金石流、土山焦而不熱。	nor would he feel the fervour of the greatest heats melting metals and stones till they flowed, and scorching all the ground and hills.
是其塵垢粃糠，將猶陶鑄堯、舜者也，孰肯以物為事！	From the dust and chaff of himself, he could still mould and fashion Yaos and Shuns - how should he be willing to occupy himself with things?'
宋人資章甫而適諸越，越人斷髮文身，無所用之。	A man of Song, who dealt in the ceremonial caps (of Yin), went with them to Yue, the people of which cut off their hair and tattooed their bodies, so that they had no use for them.
堯治天下之民，	Yao ruled the people of the kingdom,
平海內之政，	and maintained a perfect government within the four seas.
往見四子藐姑射之山，	Having gone to see the four (Perfect) Ones on the distant hill of Gu Ye,
汾水之陽，	when (he returned to his capital) on the south of the Fen water,
窅然喪其天下焉。」	his throne appeared no more to his deep-sunk oblivious eyes.
