CHAPTER I.
1. The Master said, 'There is Yung!--He might
occupy the place of a prince.'
2. Chung-kung asked about Tsze-sang Po-tsze.
The Master said, 'He may pass. He does not mind small matters.'
3. Chung-kung said, 'If a man cherish in
himself a reverential feeling of the necessity of attention to business, though
he may be easy in small matters in his government of the people, that may be
allowed. But if he cherish in himself that easy feeling, and also carry it out
in his practice, is not such an easy mode of procedure excessive?'
4. The Master said, 'Yung's words are right.'
