Easy by nature

 




Superior goodness resembles water.
Water well (in a good way) benefits the ten thousand things,
yet not it quarrels.

It dwells in all the people their place which is loathed.
Therefore it approaches to Reason.

For a dwelling it chooses the [level] ground.
For a heart it chooses the eddies.
In generosity it chooses humaneness.
In words it chooses faith.
In government it chooses ability
In its movements it chooses time. [rhythm]

Forasmuch just as not it quarrels,
therefore not it is rebuked.
