古詩：思文 中英對照

O accomplished Hou-ji ，

Thou didst prove thyself the correlate of Heaven ；

Thou didst give grain-food to our multitudes ； ——

The immense gift of thy goodness .

Thou didst confer on us the wheat and the barley ，

Which God appointed for the nourishment of all ；

And without distinction of territory or boundary ，

The rules of social duty were diffused throughout these great regions .

思文後稷、尅配彼天、立我烝民、莫匪爾極。

貽我來牟、帝命率育。

無比疆爾界、陳常於時夏。
