自书契之作，先民可得而闻者，经传所称，唐虞以上，帝王有号諡。辅佐不可得而称矣，而诸子颇言之，虽不考宓孔氏，然犹著在篇籍，归乎显善昭恶，劝戒后人，故博采焉。孔子曰：“若圣与仁，则吾岂敢？”又曰：“何事于仁，必也圣乎！”“未知，焉得仁？”“生而知之者，上也；学而知之者，次也；困而学之，又其次也；困而不学，民斯为下矣。”又曰：“中人以上，可以语上也。”“唯上智与下愚不移。” |

传曰：譬如尧舜，禹、稷、镨与之为善则行，鲧、欢兜欲与为恶则诛。可与为善，不可与为恶，是谓上智。桀纣，龙逢、比干欲与之为善则诛，于莘、崇侯与之为恶则行。可与为恶，不可与为善，是谓下愚。齐桓公，管仲相之则霸，竖貂辅之则乱。可与为善，可与为恶，是谓中人。因兹以列九等之序，究极经传，继世相次，总备古今之略要云。 |
