54 曲礼上:
为天子削瓜者副之,巾以絺。为国君者华之,巾以綌。为大夫累之,士疐之,庶人齕之。
Qu Li I:
He who pares a melon for the son of Heaven should divide it into four parts and then into eight, and cover them with a napkin of fine linen. For the ruler of a state, he should divide it into four parts, and cover them with a coarse napkin. To a great officer he should (present the four parts) uncovered. An inferior officer should receive it (simply) with the stalk cut away. A common man will deal with it with his teeth.
