To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The knowledge of that which is small does not reach to that which is great ; (the experience of) a few years does not reach to that of many. How do we know that it is so ? The mushroom of a morning does not know (what takes place between) the beginning and end of a month ; the short-lived cicada does not know (what takes place between) the spring and autumn. These are instances of a short term of life. In the south of KJiix"- there is the (tree) called Ming-ling^ whose spring is 500 years, and ...its autumn the same ; in high antiquity there was that called Ta-/('//un ■^, ^ In Chinese, INI an g 3 hang; but this is not the name of any particular place. The phrase denotes the grassy suburbs (from their green colour), not far from any city or town. ■^ The great state of the South, having its capital Ying in the present Hu-pei, and afterwards the chief competitor with KJnn for the sovereignty of the kingdom. ^ Taken by some as the name of a tortoise. ^ This and the ]\Iing-ling tree, as well as the mushroom men- tioned above, together with the khwan and phang, are all mentioned in the fifth Book of the writings of Lieh-jze, referred to in the next paragraph.
