X

The Wên Wang Yu Shêng; narrative to the last stanza, which is allusive. The praise of King Wên and King Wu:—how the former displayed his military prowess only to secure the tranquillity of the people; how this appeared in the building of Fêng as his capital city; and how the latter entered, in his capital of Hao, into the sovereignty of the kingdom with the sincere good will of all the people.

1Oh! the praise of King Wên
  Shall forever endure.
For the people he sought,
  How their rest to make sure.
And his work he beheld
  Made complete and secure;
And our Wên was a sovereign true!

2’Twas the gift of high heaven
  That the throne did bestow.
What success Wên achieved,
  When great Chung was laid low!
Fêng he called it, and moved
  There, his grand state to show;
And our Wên was a sovereign true! p. 356

3He repaired its old walls,
  And the old moat he cleared.
As his sires had oft done,
  So his new seat he reared.
Not in haste did he build,
  And the son more appeared;
And our prince was a sovereign true!

4Oh! how brightly those walls
  Did his merit display!
From all quarters they came,
  And would not be said nay.
For to Fêng they repaired,
  Their true homage to pay;
And our prince was a sovereign true!

5East from Fêng flowed the stream
  That the same name did bear.
’Twas the work of Great Yü
  Made the water flow there.
And to Fêng the states came,
  Wu their king to declare;
And our king was a sovereign true! p. 357

6Then to Hao Wu removed,
  And the pool-circled hall
There he built, and received
  The submission of all.
East, west, north, and south,
  Him their monarch they call;
And our king was a sovereign true!

7Having thought of the site,
  By the shell Wu divined.
As the shell answer gave,
  So the site was assigned.
Thus King Wu dwelt in Hao,
  Where his city we find;
And our Wu was a sovereign true!

8Where the Fêng water flows,
  Is the white millet grown.
In the men Wu employed
  How his merit was shown!
To his sons he would leave
  His wise plans and his throne;
And our Wu was a sovereign true!
