Confucius said of the head of the Chi family,who had eight rows of pantomimes in his area,"If he can bear to do this,what may he not bear to do?” The three families used the Yungode,while the vessels were being removed,at the conclusion of the sacrifice.The Master said,"Assisting are the princes;-the son of heaven looks profound and grave';-what application can these words have in the hall of the three families?" The Master said,"If a man be without the virtues proper to humanity,what has he to do with the rites of propriety?If a man be without the virtues proper to humanity,what has he to do with music?" Lin Fang asked what was the first thing to be attended to in ceremonies. The Master said,"A great question indeed! "In festive ceremonies,it is better to be sparing than extravagant.In the ceremonies of mourning,it is better that there be deep sorrow than in minute attention to observances." The Master said,"The rude tribes of the east and north have their princes,and are not like the States of our great land which are without them." The chief of the Chi family was about to sacrifice to the Tai mountain.The Master said to Zan Yu,“Can you not save him from this?”He answered,.“I cannot."Confucius said,"Alas!will you say that the T'ai mountain is not so discerning as Lin Fang?" The Master said,"The student of virtue has no contentions.If it be said he cannot avoid them,shall this be in archery?But he bows complaisantly to his competitors;thus he ascends the hall,descends,and exacts the forfeit of drinking.In his contention,he is still the Chun-tsze."Confucius said of the head of the Chi family, who had eight rows of pantomimes in his area, “If he can bear to do this, what may he not bear to do?” The three families used the Yungode, while the vessels were being removed, at the conclusion of the sacrifice.
