孟冬行春令，则冻闭不密，地气上泄，民多流亡。行夏令，则国多暴风，方冬不寒，蛰虫复出。行秋令，则雪霜不时，小兵时起，土地侵削。

If, in the first month of winter, the proceedings of government proper to spring were observed, the cold that shuts up all beneath it would not do so tightly; the vapours of the earth would rise up and go abroad; many of the people would wander away and disappear. If those proper to summer were observed, there would be many violent winds in the states; winter itself would not be cold; and insects would come forth again from their burrows. If those proper to autumn were observed, the snow and hoarfrost would come unseasonably; small military affairs would constantly be arising; and incursions and loss of territory would occur.
