帝堯天子The Emperor Yao being old ordered that Shun should be associated with him in the government of the Empire in order to observe Heaven's decrees.
Shun thereupon examined the gem-adorned armillary sphere, and the jade transverse, so as to adjust the position of the 'Seven Directors.'
He then offered a special sacrifice to the Supreme Ruler,
sacrificed purely to the six honoured ones,
looked with devotion to the hills and rivers,
and worshipped with distinctive rites the hosts of spirits.
He called in the five tokens,
chose a lucky month and day,
gave audience to the president of the four mountains, and all the governors,
returning the tokens in due course.
巡狩In the second month of every year he went eastward on a tour of inspection, and on reaching Daizong he presented a burnt-offering, and sacrificed in order to the hills and rivers.
He then gave audience to the chieftains of the East,
putting in accord their seasons and months, and rectifying the days.
He rendered uniform the standard tubes, the measures of length and capacity, and the scales;
and regulated the five kinds of ceremonies. The five gems, the three kinds of silks, the two living animals, and one dead one were brought as presents to the audience,
but the five implements
were returned at the conclusion.
In the fifth month
巡狩 he went to the south,
in the eighth month
西巡狩 to the west,
and in the eleventh month
巡狩 northward on his tours of inspection;
in each case observing the same ceremonies as before,
and on his return
he went to the temple of the ancestral tablets,
and offered up a single ox.
巡狩 Every five years there was one tour of inspection,
and four audiences of the princes at court,
when they presented a full verbal report,
which was intelligently tested by their works,
and chariots and robes given according to their deserts.
Shun instituted the division of the Empire into twelve provinces,
and deepened the rivers.
He gave delineations of the statutory punishments,
enacting banishment as a mitigation of the five chief punishments,
the whip being employed for public officers,
the stick in schools,
and a money penalty being inflicted for redeemable crimes.
Inadvertent offences, and those caused by misfortune
were to be pardoned,
and those who offended presumptuously or repeatedly
were to be punished with death.
'Be reverent,
be reverent' (said he),
'and in the administration of the law be tranquil.'
