制斷五刑，各當其名。罪人不怨，善人不驚曰刑正之，服之、勝之、飾之、必嚴其令，而民則之，曰政。如四時之不貣，如星辰之不變，如宵如晝，如陰如陽，如日月之明，曰法。愛之生之，養之成之，利民不德，天下親之，曰德。無德無怨，無好無惡，萬物崇一，陰陽同度，曰道。刑以獘之，政以命之，法以遏之，德以養之。道以明之刑以獘之，毋失民命。令之以終其欲，明之毋徑。遏之以絕其志意，毋使民幸。養之以化其惡，必自身始，明之以察其生，必修其理。致刑其民，庸心以蔽，致政其民，服信以聽。致德其民，和平以靜。致道其民，付而不爭。罪人當名曰刑，出令時當曰政，當故不改曰法愛民無私曰德。會民所聚曰道立常行政，能服信乎？中和慎敬，能日新乎？正衡一靜，能守慎乎？廢私立公，能舉人乎？臨政官民。能後其身乎？能服信政，此謂正紀。能服日新，此謂行理。守慎正名，偽軸自止。舉人無私，臣德咸道。能後其身，上佐天子。Chinese text: This work was published before January 1, 1923, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.
