BOOK I

_Sacrificial Odes of Chow_

APPROPRIATE TO A SACRIFICE TO KING WAN

My offerings here are given, A ram, a bull.

Accept them, mighty Heaven, All-bountiful.

Thy statutes, O great king, I keep, I love; So on the realm to bring Peace from above.

From Wan comes blessing rich; Now on the right He owns those gifts to which Him I invite.

Do I not night and day, Revere great Heaven, That thus its favor may To Chow be given?

ON SACRIFICING TO THE KINGS WOO, CHING, AND K'ANG

The arm of Woo was full of might; None could his fire withstand; And Ching and K'ang stood forth to sight, As kinged by G.o.d's own hand.

We err not when we call them sage.

How grandly they maintained Their hold of all the heritage That Wan and Woo had gained!

As here we wors.h.i.+p, they descend, While bells and drums resound, And stones and lutes their music blend.

With blessings we are crowned.

The rites correctly we discharge; The feast we freely share.

Those Sires Chow's glory will enlarge, And ever for it care.
