Your servant laughs and says: When examining the names of provinces and commanderies in the Daoist scriptures, the text seems to have originated in recent ages. In antiquity, counties were large and commanderies were small, as seen in the Chunqiu and the 'Luo gao' of the Zhoushu. Now, on the contrary, commanderies are made larger than counties—is this not [proof that] it is not a Daoist scripture from before the Chunqiu period? It is deceitful, confusing, and erroneous, unfit to behold, and truly laughable.
