(Those who) possessed in highest degree the attributes (of the Tao) did not (seek) to cultivate them, and thus they were possessed of them (in the highest degree). Thus it was that when the Tao was lost, its attributes appeared; when its attributes were lost, benevolence appeared; when benevolence was lost, righteousness appeared; and when righteousness was lost, the proprieties appeared.
