| 1 | 閟宮: |
閟宮有侐、實實枚枚。 赫赫姜嫄、其德不回。 上帝是依、無災無害。 彌月不遲、是生后稷、降之百福。 黍稷重穋、稙稺菽麥。 奄有下國、俾民稼穡、有稷有黍、有稻有秬。 奄有下土、纘禹之緒。 |

How pure and still are the solemn temples, In their strong solidity and minute completeness! Highly distinguished was Jiang Yuan, Of virtue undeflected. God regarded her with favour; And without injury or hurt, Immediately, when her months were fulfilled, She gave birth to Hou-ji. On him were conferred all blessings, - [To know] how the millet ripened early, and the sacrificial millet late, How first to sow pulse, and then wheat. Anon he was invested with an inferior State, And taught the people how to sow and to reap, The millet and the sacrificial millet, Rice and the black millet; Ere long all over the whole country; - [Thus] continuing the work of Yu. |
