鐔津文集 7.22

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [7.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2115.7.22)

父子不以道。雖禽獸亦能親。則君子何以別乎。是故聖人愛子以義謂之仁。事父以禮謂之孝。舜之為子。文王之為父。可謂仁孝者也。天下宜法。

> If father and son do not relate according to the Dao, even birds and beasts can show affection; how then would the noble person be distinguished? For this reason, when the sage loves his son with righteousness, it is called benevolence; when he serves his father with ritual, it is called filial piety. Shun's conduct as a son and King Wen's conduct as a father may be called benevolence and filial piety. The realm ought to take them as models.
