10.6

Canons and counsels (典謨: the upper character has the fanqie 多殄; the Erya says standard; in the Book of Yu, when about to abdicate the throne to Yu Shun, the Canon of Yao was made; Kong's commentary says it means Yao could serve as a constant path for a hundred generations; the lower character has the fanqie 莫胡; 謨 means deliberations; in the Book of Yu, when Gaoyao failed in his counsels, Yu the Great achieved his merits, and they made the Counsels of Yu the Great and Gaoyao; Kong's commentary says the Counsels of Yu the Great concern the nine achievements, and the Counsels of Gaoyao concern the nine virtues; Yu is called Great to magnify his merit; 謨 means plans).
