易曰:「公用射隼,于高墉之上,獲之无不利。」 | It is said in the Yi, 'The duke with (his bow) shoots at the falcon on the top of the high wall; he hits it: - his every movement will be advantageous.' |
子曰:「隼者禽也,弓矢者器也,射之者人也。 | The Master said: - 'The falcon is a bird (of prey); the bow and arrow is a weapon (of war); the shooter is a man. |
君子藏器於身,待時而動,何不利之有?動而不括,是以出而有獲,語成器而動者也。」 | The superior man keeps his weapon concealed about his person, and waits for the proper time to move; - doing this, how should his movement be other than successful? There is nothing to fetter or embarrass his movement; and hence, when he comes forth, he succeeds in his object. The language speaks of movement when the instrument necessary to it is ready and perfect.' |
