13.6

有黃巾李仲卿。學謝管窺智慚臆度。矜白鳥之翼。望駭嵩華。負爝火之光。爭輝日月。乃作十異九迷貶量至聖。余慨其無識。念彼何辜。聊為十喻曉之九箴誡之。用指諸掌。庶明達君子。詳茲而改正焉。

There was the Yellow Turban Li Zhongqing, whose learning fell short of looking through a tube, and whose wisdom was ashamed before mere conjecture. Boasting of the wings of an egret, he looked toward terrifying Mount Song and Mount Hua; carrying the light of a tiny torch, he vied for brilliance with the sun and moon. Thereupon he composed the 'Ten Discrepancies and Nine Delusions' to belittle the Supreme Sage. I lament his lack of knowledge and pity his blameless ignorance. For now, I compose ten analogies to enlighten him, and nine admonitions to warn him, making it as plain as pointing to one's palm. I hope that enlightened and eminent gentlemen will examine this and rectify their errors.
