儒家 -> 礼记 -> 乐记 -> 9

Therefore the ancient kings, when they instituted their ceremonies and music,
regulated them by consideration of the requirements of humanity.
By the sackcloth worn for parents, the wailings, and the weepings, they defined the terms of the mourning rites.
By the bells, drums, shields, and axes, they introduced harmony into their seasons of rest and enjoyment.
By marriage, capping, and the assumption of the hair-pin, they maintained the separation that should exist between male and female.
By the archery gatherings in the districts, and the feastings at the meetings of princes, they provided for the correct maintenance of friendly intercourse.
Ceremonies afforded the defined expression for the (affections of the) people's minds;
music secured the harmonious utterance of their voices;
the laws of government were designed to promote the performance (of the ceremonies and music);
and punishments, to guard against the violation of them.
When ceremonies, music, laws, and punishments
had everywhere full course, without irregularity or collision,
the method of kingly rule was complete.
