"It was when the Great Way declined That human kindness and morality arose; It was when intelligence and knowledge appeared That the Great Artifice began. It was when the six near ones were no longer at peace That there was talk of “dutiful sons”; Nor till fatherland was dark with strife Did we hear of “loyal slaves”."
