5 舆服上:
》曰:“明试以功,车服以庸。”言昔者圣人兴天下之大利,除天下之大害,躬亲其事,身履其勤,忧之劳之,不避寒暑,使天下之民物,各得安其性命,无夭昏暴陵之灾。是以天下之民,敬而爱之,若亲父母;则而养之,若仰日月。夫爱之者欲其长久,不惮力役,相与起作宫室,上栋下宇,以雍覆之,欲其长久也;敬之者欲其尊严,不惮劳烦,相与起作舆轮旌旗章表,以尊严之。斯爱之至,敬之极也。苟心爱敬,虽报之至,情由未尽。或杀身以为之,尽其情也;弈世以祀之,明其功也。是以流光与天地比长。后世圣人,知恤民之忧思深大者,必飨其乐;勤仁毓物使不夭折者,必受其福。故为之制礼以节之,使夫上仁继天统物,不伐其功,民物安逸,若道自然,莫知所谢。老子曰:“圣人不仁,以百姓为刍狗。”此之谓也。
