　雜事第一

昔者，舜自耕稼陶漁而躬孝友，父瞽頑，母嚚，及弟象傲，皆下愚不移。舜盡孝道，以供養瞽。瞽與象，為浚井塗廩之謀，欲以殺舜，舜孝益篤。出田則號泣，年五十猶嬰兒慕，可謂至孝矣。

故耕於歷山，歷山之耕者讓畔；陶於河濱，河濱之陶者，器不苦窳；漁於雷澤，雷澤之漁者分均。及立為天子，天下化之，蠻夷率服。北發渠搜，南撫交阯，莫不慕義，麟鳳在郊。故孔子曰：「孝弟之至，通於神明，光于四座。」舜之謂也。

孔子在州里，篤行孝道，居於闕黨，闕黨之子弟畋漁，分有親者多，孝以化之也。是以七十二子，自遠方至，服從其德。魯有沈猶氏者，旦飲羊飽之，以欺市人。公慎氏有妻而淫，慎潰氏奢侈驕佚，魯市之鬻牛馬者善豫賈。孔子將為魯司寇，沈猶氏不敢朝飲其羊，公慎氏出其妻，慎潰氏踰境而徙，魯之鬻馬牛不豫賈，布正以待之也。既為司寇，季孟墮郈費之城，齊人歸所侵魯之地，由積正之所致也。故曰：「其身正，不令而行。」

孫叔敖為嬰兒之時，出遊，見兩頭蛇，殺而埋之。歸而泣，其母問其故，叔敖對曰：�... Continue reading book >>
