A route through this passage

23 Han characters · 23 distinct forms · 5 units separated by the witness’s punctuation

  1. Establish the frame. Read the surrounding chapter. Who speaks, what is being discussed, and which earlier words supply the context?
  2. Test one unit. 其可謂至德也已矣。 Mark a possible predicate and its participants. Record what you have supplied rather than found explicitly in the text.
  3. Reconstruct the argument. Connect the units in your own words. Where does a description, question, contrast, or consequence depend on your interpretation?
