"The Tao is the wonder of all things The treasure of the kind person The protection of the unkind person Admirable words can win the public's respect Admirable actions can improve people Those who are unkind How can they be abandoned? Therefore, when crowning the Emperor And install the three ministers Although there is the offering of jade before four horses None of it can compare to being seated in this Tao Why did the ancients value this Tao so much? Is it not said that those who seek will find, And those with guilt will not be faulted? Therefore, it is the greatest value in the world"
