:「Yu said, 'Alas!
to attain to both these things
might well be a difficulty even to the Di.
When (the sovereign) knows men, he is wise,
and can put every one into the office for which he is fit. When he gives repose to the people, his kindness is felt,
and the black-haired race cherish him in their hearts.
When he can be (thus) wise and kind,
what occasion will he have for anxiety about a Huan-dou?
what to be removing a lord of Miao?
what to fear any one of fair words, insinuating appearance, and great artfulness?
