既练，居垩室，不与人居。	After the mourning was changed at the end of a year, (the sons) occupied the unplastered apartment, and did not occupy one along with others.
君谋国政，大夫、士谋家事。	Then the ruler consulted about the government of the state; and Great officers and common officers about the affairs of their clan and families.
既祥，黝垩。祥而外无哭者；禫而内无哭者，乐作矣故也。禫而从御，吉祭而复寝。	After the sacrifice at the end of two years, the ground of the apartment was made of a dark green, and the walls were whitened. After this, they no longer wailed outside; and after the sacrifice at the end of twenty-seven months, they did not do so inside; for, after it, music began to be heard.
