折疑論 4.15

4.15

且舜禹之君。可謂聖矣。楊朱從而讎之（讐讟謗也。列子。楊朱曰。舜耕河陽陶於雷澤。四體不得暫安。口腹不得美厚。父母之所不愛。弟妹之所不親。行年三十不告而娶。及受堯之禪。年已長智已衰。商均不才。禪位於禹。戚戚然以至於死。此天人窮毒者也。鯀治水土。功績不就。殛諸羽山。禹纂業事讐。惟荒度土功。子產不字。過門不入。身體偏枯。手足胼胝。及受舜禪。卑宮室戚戚然至於死。此天人之憂苦者也）。

'Furthermore, sovereigns like Shun and Yu may be called sages, yet Yang Zhu opposed and reviled them. (Reviling means slandering. Liezi says: Yang Zhu said, 'Shun plowed at Heyang and made pottery at Leize; his four limbs did not enjoy a moment's rest, his mouth and belly had nothing delicious or rich, his parents did not love him, and his younger brother and sister were not affectionate to him. At thirty years of age, he married without telling his parents. By the time he received Yao's abdication, his years were advanced and his wisdom was declining. Because Shangjun was untalented, he abdicated the throne to Yu, living sorrowfully until his death. This was a man afflicted and tormented by Heaven. Gun controlled the waters and land, but his achievements were not accomplished, so he was executed on Mount Yu. Yu inherited the task and served his father's enemy, merely surveying the landworks. When his son was born he did not name him, and when passing his door he did not enter. His body became half-paralyzed, and his hands and feet became calloused. When he received Shun's abdication, he kept his palace chambers humble and lived sorrowfully until his death. This was a man burdened with grief and hardship by Heaven.')
