儒家 -> 礼记 -> 礼器 -> 23

是故君子之于礼也，非作而致其情也，And so those usages were not devised by superior men in order to give expression to their feelings.
此有由始也。 There was a beginning of them from (the oldest times);
是故七介以相见也，as when (two princes) have an interview, there are seven attendants to wait on them and direct them.
不然则已悫。 Without these the interview would be too plain and dull.
三辞三让而至，They reach (the ancestral temple) after the visitor has thrice declined the welcome of the host, and the host has thrice tried to give precedence to the other.
不然则已蹙。 Without these courtesies the interview would be too hurried and abrupt.
故鲁人将有事于上帝，In the same way, when in Lu they were about to perform the service to God (in the suburb),
必先有事于頖宫； they felt it necessary first to have a service in the college with its semicircular pool.
晋人将有事于河， When they were about in Jin to sacrifice to the He,
必先有事于恶池； they would first do so to the pool of Wu.
齐人将有事于泰山， When in Qi they were about to sacrifice to mount Tai,
必先有事于配林。 they would do so first in the forest of Pei.
三月系，Moreover, the keeping the victims (for the altar of Heaven) for three months (in the stable);
七日戒， the abstinence (of the worshippers) for seven days;
三日宿， and the vigil of three days:
慎之至也。-all showed the extreme degree of (preparatory) care (for the service).
故礼有摈诏，The ritual arrangements, further, of the reception (of guests) and communication between them and the host,
乐有相步， and for assisting and guiding the steps of the (blind) musicians,
温之至也。 showed the extreme degree of kindly (provision).
