English translation: James Legge [?]
Books referencing 《楚茨》 Library Resources
4 楚茨:
我孔熯矣、式禮莫愆。
工祝致告、徂賚孝孫。
苾芬孝祀、神嗜飲食
卜爾百福、如幾如式。
既齊既稷、既匡既敕。
永錫爾極、時萬時憶。
Chu Ci:
We are very much exhausted,
And have performed every ceremony without error.
The able priest announces [the will of the Spirits],
And goes to the filial descendent to convey it.
' Fragrant has been your filial sacrifice,
And the Spirits have enjoyed your spirits and viands.
They confer upon you a hundred blessings;
Each as it is desired, each as sure as law.
You have been exact and expeditious;
You have been correct and careful :
They will ever confer on you the choicest favours,
In myriads and tens of myriads. '
