עמוד 318 - Jobgaou and Fun-maon, who laboured in wooden carts and tattered hempen clothes to bring the hills and forests under cultivation.

Tsze-fan, said, ' When an army has right on its side, it is strong; when the expedition is wrong, the army is weary and weak.
עמוד 293 - Hëa was distinguished for its virtue, the distant regions sent pictures of the [remarkable] objects in them. The nine pastors sent in the metal of their provinces, and the tripods were cast, with representations on them of those objects.

He went up to the couch of Tsze-fan, and roused him, saying, "My master has sent me to inform you of our distress. In the city we are exchanging our children and eating them, and splitting up their bones for fuel.
עמוד 320 - prowess' is made up of [the ideographs for] 'to stay' and 'a spear' (cessation of hostilities).
