夫物有以同而不率遂同。辞之侔也，有所至而正。其然也，有所以然也； 其然也1同，其所以然不必同。其取之也，有 所2以取之。其取之也同，其所以取之不必同。是故辟、侔、援、推之辞，行而异，转而危，远而失，流而离本，则不可不审也，不可常用也。故言多方，殊类，异故，则不可偏观也。夫物或乃是而然，或是而不然，或一周3而一不周4，或一是而一 不是也。不可常用也。故言多方，殊类，异故，则不可偏观也，5非也。 |

Things have that by which they are similar, but this does not make them the similar. Similarity of sentences is correct within a certain range. That it is so, has that by which is so. When things are the same in being so, that by which they are so is not necessarily the same. When something is chosen, there is that by which it is chosen. When what is chosen is the same, that by which it is chosen is not necessarily the same. Thus the sayings of Analogy, Similarity, Leading, and Extending, proceed and become different, turn and become unsafe, go far and become lost, flow and lose their foundation - this must be examined, and they cannot be constantly applied. Thus doctrine should rely upon many methods, various kinds, different causes, and cannot be looked upon from a single perspective. Things are sometimes thus and so; sometimes thus and not so; sometimes one requires all and one not all; sometimes one thus and one not thus. 1. 其然也 : Inserted. |
