乡饮酒义 - Xiang Yin Jiu Yi

[Also known as: "The meaning of the drinking festivity in the districts"]

15 乡饮酒义:
贵贱明,隆杀辨,和乐而不流,弟长而无遗,安燕而不乱,此五行者,足以正身安国矣。彼国安而天下安。故曰:“吾观于乡,而知王道之易易也。”
Xiang Yin Jiu Yi:
'The distinction between the noble and mean thus exhibited; the discrimination in the multitude or paucity of the observances to different parties; the harmony and joy without disorder; the brotherly deference to elders without omitting any; the happy feasting without turbulence or confusion;--the observance of these five things is sufficient to secure the rectification of the person, and the tranquillity of the state. When that one state is tranquil, all under heaven will be the same. Therefore I say that when I look on at the festivity in the country districts, I know how easily the Royal Way may obtain free course.'

10 乐论:
吾观于乡,而知王道之易易也。主人亲速宾及介,而众宾皆从之。至于门外,主人拜宾及介,而众宾皆入;贵贱之义别矣。三揖至于阶,三让以宾升。拜至、献、酬,辞让之节繁,及介省矣。至于众宾,升受、坐祭、立饮,不酢而降;隆杀之义辨矣。工入,升歌三终,主人献之;笙入三终,主人献之;间歌三终,合乐三终,工告乐备,遂出。二人扬觯,乃立司正,焉知其能和乐而不流也。宾酬主人,主人酬介,介酬众宾,少长以齿,终于沃洗者,焉知其能弟长而无遗也。降,说屦升坐,修爵无数。饮酒之节,朝不废朝,莫不废夕。宾出,主人拜送,节文终遂,焉知其能安燕而不乱也。贵贱明,隆杀辨,和乐而不流,弟长而无遗,安燕而不乱,此五行者,足以正身安国矣。彼国安而天下安。故曰:吾观于乡,而知王道之易易也。

2 观乡射:
孔子曰:“吾观于乡,而知王道之易易也。主人亲速宾及介,而众宾皆从之,至于正门之外,主人拜宾及介,而众宾自入,贵贱之义别矣。三揖至于阶,三让,以宾升,拜至,献、酬辞让之节繁;及介升,则省矣。至于众宾,升而受爵、坐祭、立饮,不酢而降,隆杀之义辨矣。工入,升歌三终,主人献宾;笙入三终,主人又献之。间歌三终,合乐三阕,工告“乐备”而遂出。一人扬觯,乃立司正焉,知其能和乐而不流也。宾酬主人,主人酬介,介酬众宾,少长以齿,终于沃、洗者焉,知其能弟长而无遗矣。降,脱履升座,修爵无算。饮酒之节,旰不废朝,暮不废夕。宾出,主人迎送,节文终遂焉,知其能安燕而不乱也。贵贱既明,降杀既辨,和乐而不流,弟长而无遗,安燕而不乱。此五者,足以正身安国矣。彼国安而天下安矣。故曰:吾观于乡,而知王道之易易也。
