周宣王殺杜伯不辜。杜伯曰。死若有知。三年必使君知之。三年周宣王田於甫田。從人滿野。日中杜伯乘白馬素車。朱衣朱冠。執朱弓。挾朱矢。射王中心。折脊伏㢭而死(右一驗出墨子傳)。

King Xuan of Zhou killed Du Bo, who was innocent. Du Bo said: "If the dead have consciousness, within three years I will certainly make the lord know it." In the third year, King Xuan of Zhou went hunting at Futian, with attendants filling the wilderness. At noon, Du Bo rode in a plain chariot drawn by white horses, dressed in crimson robes and a crimson cap, holding a crimson bow and gripping a crimson arrow. He shot the king in the center of his heart, breaking his spine, so that he slumped over his bow-case and died. (The one verification above comes from the Account of Mozi.)
