4 德充符:
魯哀公問於仲尼曰:「衛有惡人焉,曰哀駘它。丈夫與之處者,思而不能去也。婦人見之,請於父母曰『與為人妻,寧為夫子妾』者,十數而未止也。未嘗有聞其唱者也,常和而已矣。無君人之位以濟乎人之死,無聚祿以望人之腹。又以惡駭天下,和而不唱,知不出乎四域,且而雌雄合乎前。是必有異乎人者也。寡人召而觀之,果以惡駭天下。與寡人處,不至以月數,而寡人有意乎其為人也;不至乎期年,而寡人信之。國無宰,寡人傳國焉。悶然而後應,氾而若辭。寡人醜乎,卒授之國。無幾何也,去寡人而行,寡人卹焉若有亡也,若無與樂是國也。是何人者也?」仲尼曰:「丘也,嘗使於楚矣,適見㹠子食於其死母者,少焉眴若,皆棄之而走。不見己焉爾,不得類焉爾。所愛其母者,非愛其形也,愛使其形者也。戰而死者,其人之葬也,不以翣資,刖者之屨,無為愛之,皆無其本矣。為天子之諸御,不爪翦,不穿耳;娶妻者止於外,不得復使。形全猶足以為爾,而況全德之人乎!今哀駘它未言而信,無功而親,使人授己國,唯恐其不受也,是必才全而德不形者也。」哀公曰:「何謂才全?」仲尼曰:「死生存亡,窮達貧富,賢與不肖,毀譽、饑渴、寒暑,是事之變,命之行也;日夜相代乎前,而知不能規乎其始者也。故不足以滑和,不可入於靈府。使之和豫通而不失於兌,使日夜無郤而與物為春,是接而生時於心者也。是之謂才全。」「何謂德不形?」曰:「平者,水停之盛也。其可以為法也,內保之而外不蕩也。德者,成和之修也。德不形者,物不能離也。」哀公異日以告閔子曰:「始也,吾以南面而君天下,執民之紀,而憂其死,吾自以為至通矣。今吾聞至人之言,恐吾無其實,輕用吾身而亡其國。吾與孔丘,非君臣也,德友而已矣。」
