3 深衣:
故规者,行举手以为容;负绳抱方者,以直其政,方其义也。故《》曰:坤,六二之动,直以方”也。下齐如权衡者,以安志而平心也。
Shen Yi:
In this way through the rounded sleeves the arms could be lifted up in walking (for the purpose of salutation) in the most elegant form. The cord-like seam of the back and the square-shaped collar about the neck in front, served to admonish (the wearer) how his government should be correct and his righteousness on the square. It is said in the Yi, 'The movement indicated by the second line in Kun, divided, is "from the straight (line) to the square."' The even edge at the bottom, like the steelyard and balance, admonished him to keep his will at rest, and his heart even and calm.

4 单衣:
又《深衣》曰:古者深衣,盖有制度,以应规矩,绳权衡。短毋见肤,长毋被土,带下毋压髀,上毋压胁。制十有二幅,以应十二月,袂圆以应规,曲祫如矩以应方,负绳及踝以应直,下齐如权以应平。故齐縃。《易》曰:坤六二之动,直以方也。下齐如衡者,以安其志而平其心也。五法以施,故圣人服之。故规矩取其无私,绳取其直,权衡取其平,故先王贵之,故可以为文,可以为武,可以摈相,可以治军旅。
