15.162

仰願皇帝陛下至道與四游並運。玄風與八埏共廣。反淳源於三古。捨澆波於九代。至治已覩於今日。大道復屬於此時。虎豹尾而不驚。虺蛇蹍而莫噬。埋金扺玉毀契焚文。嘉禾生醴泉出。金車玉馬自相暉曜。玄鶴丹鳳飛鳴來往。光景之所照燭。舟車之所驅汎。莫不屈膝係頸迴首革音。入侍[葶-丁+呆]街迎拜渭水。與天地而長久。等金石而愈固。中岳可轉長河有清。而我聖皇愈溫愈睟。不言而化行。無為而教肅。

We respectfully pray that His Majesty the Emperor's supreme Dao may move together with the four seasons, and his mysterious wind spread universally with the eight directions. May he return to the pure source of the three antiquities, and discard the shallow waves of the nine dynasties. May the utmost governance already be seen today, and the great Dao once again belong to this era. May tigers and leopards be trodden on their tails without taking fright, and vipers and serpents be stepped on without biting. Burying gold and casting away jade, tearing contracts and burning documents. May auspicious grain grow and sweet springs well forth; may golden carts and jade horses naturally shine upon one another; may dark cranes and vermilion phoenixes fly, sing, and come and go. Wherever the light illuminates, and wherever boats and chariots speed and float, may all bend their knees, bind their necks, turn their heads, and reform their speech; entering to serve in the post stations and bowing in greeting at the Wei River. May he endure as long as heaven and earth, becoming firmer than metal and stone. The Central Peak may be shifted and the Long River may run clear, yet our Sage Emperor becomes ever warmer and ever more gleaming. Without words his transformation proceeds; without action his teaching is reverenced.
