君賜車馬，乘以拜賜；衣服，服以拜賜；君未有命，弗敢即乘服也。君賜，稽首，據掌致諸地；酒肉之賜，弗再拜。凡賜，君子與小人不同日。

When the ruler sent (to an officer) the gift of a carriage and horses, he used them in going to give thanks for them. When the gift was of clothes, he wore them on the same occasion. (In the case of similar gifts to a commissioner from the king), until his (own) ruler had given him orders to use them, he did not dare at once to do so. When the ruler's gift reached him, he bowed his head to the ground with his two hands also, laying one of them over the other. A gift of liquor and flesh did not require the second expression of thanks (by the visit). Whenever a gift was conferred on a man of rank, nothing was given to a small man on the same day.
