To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As men see his righteousness and come in contact with his truth they naturally obey. As the wind moves the blades of grass innumerable in the broad field, not all at once but on from blade to blade, so his influence at last touches and bows each unit in his vast domain. But never since the Golden Age has there been a Sage upon the throne. The divine order has not obtained. At best there has been only an approximation. Sometimes it has been wholly lost when an unworthy ruler has taken the Empire... for his own and used it for the gratification of his lusts. Such a ruler is no king and against him rebellion is a duty. For the people are the " Heaven " of the king, the reason for his being. Duty is his divine right. If he disregard it, ipso factOy he is no king. Never was a king driven CONFUCIANISM 97 from his throne, but many a '* fellow " has been stripped of royal robes. So first of all the king must rule himself. Laws, even the inspired philosophy, are nothing if the ruler does not embody truth.
