儒家 -> 論衡 -> 率性 -> 9

凡含血氣者，教之所以異化也。It is by instruction that living beings are transformed.
三苗之民，Among the Three Miao tribes
或賢或不肖，some were honest, some disreputable.
堯、舜齊之，Yao and Shun made them all alike
恩教加也。by conferring the boon of instruction upon them.
楚、越之人，Suppose the men of Chu and Yue
處莊、嶽之間，to settle down in Zhuang or Yue.
經歷歲月，Having passed there months and years,
變為舒緩，they would become pliant and yielding,
風俗侈也。and their customs changed.
故曰：「齊舒緩，秦慢易，楚促急，燕戇投。」They say that the people of Qi are soft and supple, those of Qin unsteady and versatile, of Chu lively and passionate, of Yan dull and simple.
以莊、嶽言之，四國之民，更相出入，久居單處，性必變易。Now let us suppose that people of the four States alternately went to live in Zhuang and Yue for a certain time, the prolonged stay in a place remote from their country would undubitably bring about a change of their character.
夫性惡者，心比木石，木石猶為人用，況非木石！A bad natured man's heart is like wood or stone, but even wood and stone can be used by men, why not what really is neither wood nor stone?
在君子之迹，庶幾可見。We may hope that it will still be able to understand the precepts of superior men.
