生民 - Sheng Min

English translation: James Legge [?]
Books referencing 《生民》 Library Resources
7 生民:
誕我祀如何。
或舂或揄、或簸或蹂
釋之叟叟、烝之浮浮。
載謀載惟、取蕭祭脂、取羝以軷。
載燔載烈、以興嗣歲。
Sheng Min:
And how as to our sacrifices [to him]?
Some hull [the grain]; some take it from the mortar;
Some sift it; some tread it.
It is rattling in the dishes;
It is distilled, and the steam floats about.
We consult; we observe the rites of purification;
We take southernwood and offer it with the fat;
We sacrifice a ram to the Spirit of the path;
We offer roast flesh and broiled:
And thus introduce the coming year.
