Chapter IV

The Master, speaking of Chung-kung, said, ‘If the calf of a brindled cow be red and horned, although men may not wish to use it, would the spirits of the mountains and rivers put it aside?’

Chapter V

The Master said, ‘Such was Hui that for three months there would be nothing in his mind contrary to perfect virtue. The others may attain to this on some days or in some months, but nothing more.’

Chapter VI

Chi K’ang asked about Chung-yu, whether he was fit to be employed as an officer of government. The Master said, ‘Yu is a man of decision; what difficulty would he find in being an officer of government?’ K’ang asked, ‘Is Ts’ze fit to be employed as an officer of government?’ and was answered, ‘Ts’ze is a man of intelligence; what difficulty would he find in being an officer of government?’ And to the same question about Ch’iu the Master gave the same reply, saying, ‘Ch’iu is a man of various ability.’
