| 文挚至， | When he arrived |
| 视王之疾， | and saw the king's sickness |
| 谓太子曰： | he said to the heir-apparent: |
| “王之疾， | "The king's illness |
| 必可已也。 | can certainly be cured, |
| 虽然，王之疾已， | but when it has been, |
| 则必杀挚也。” | the king is sure to kill me." |
| 太子曰：“何故？” | The heir-apparent inquired what for, |
| 文挚对曰： | Wen Zhi replied, |
| “非怒王，疾不可治也。 | "Without anger the king's illness cannot be cured, |
| 王怒， | but when the king gets angry, |
| 则挚必死。” | my death is certain." |
| 太子顿首强请曰： | The heir-apparent bowed his head, and entreated him saying, |
| “苟已王之疾， | " Should you cure the king's sickness, |
| 臣与臣之母以死争之于王， | myself and my mother are going to forcibly restrain the king at the cost of our lives. |
| 必幸臣之母。 | The king will certainly please my mother. |
| 愿先生之勿患也。” | We are wishing that you, master, shall have no trouble." |
| 文挚曰：“诺，请以死为王。” | Wen Zhi gave his consent and said that he was prepared to die. |
| 与太子期， | The king with his eldest son fixed a time. |
| 将往，不至者三， | Thrice the physician was expected, but did not come so, |
| 齐王固已怒矣。 | that the king of Qi was already very angry. |
| 文挚至， | When he came at last, |
| 不解屦登床， | he did not put off his shoes, but walked upon the bed |
| 履衣， | and tread upon the sheets. |
| 问王之疾。 | He asked the king about his sickness, |
| 王怒而不与言。 | but the king was so furious, that he did not speak with him. |
| 文挚因出辞以重王怒。 | Then he said something which but aggravated the king’s wrath. |
| 王叱而起， | The king abused him, and rose up, |
| 疾乃遂已。 | and his disease was gone. |
| 王大怒不悦， | He was so enraged and so little pleased, |
| 将生烹文挚。 | that he wished to boil Wen Zhi alive. |
| 太子与王后急争之而不能得， | The heir-apparent and the queen forthwith interfered, but could obtain nothing. |
| 果以鼎生烹文挚。 | Wen Zhi was actually boiled alive in a cauldron: |
| 爨之三日三夜， | After three days' and three night's cooking, |
| 颜色不变。 | his appearance had not yet changed. |
| 文挚曰： | Wen Zhi said, |
| “诚欲杀我， | " If one really is anxious to kill me, |
| 则胡不覆之， | why does one not put on the lid |
| 以绝阴阳之气？” | to intercept the Yin and the Yang fluids." |
