English translation: James Legge [?]
Books referencing 《月令》 Library Resources
[Also known as: "Proceedings of Government in the Different Months"]

31 月令:
孟夏之月,日在毕,昏翼中,旦婺女中。其日丙丁。其帝炎帝,其神祝融。其虫羽。其音徵,律中中吕。其数七。其味苦,其臭焦。其祀灶,祭先肺。
Yue Ling:
In the first month of summer, the sun is in Bi; the constellation culminating at dusk being Yi, and that culminating at dawn Wu-nu. Its days are bing and ding. Its divine ruler is Yan Di, and the (attending) spirit is Gu-rong. Its creatures are the feathered. Its musical note is Zhi, and its pitch-tube is the Zhong Lu. Its number is seven. Its taste is acrid. Its smell is that of things burning. Its sacrifice is that at the furnace; and of the parts of the victim the lungs have the foremost place.
