[Also known as: "Rites in the formation of character"]

12 禮器:
有以素為貴者:至敬無文,父黨無容,大圭不琢,大羹不和,大路素而越席,犧尊疏布冪,樿杓。此以素為貴也。
Li Qi:
In others, plainness formed the mark. Acts of the greatest reverence admit of no ornament. The relatives of a father do not put themselves into postures (like other visitors). The Grand jade-token has no engraving on it. The Grand soup has no condiments. The Grand carriage is plain, and the mats in it are of rushes. The goblet with the victim-ox carved on it is covered with a plain white cloth. The ladle is made of white-veined wood. These are cases in which plainness is the mark.
