📜 Yafa fɔ (Wang Bi · Legge · AI Modern)
James Legge (1891)
In the highest antiquity, (the people) did not know that there were (their rulers). In the next age they loved them and praised them. In the next they feared them; in the next they despised them. Their work was done and their undertakings were successful, while the people all said, 'We are as we are, of ourselves!'
