  Muddled and confused��
  When common people scintillate
  I alone make shadows。
  Vulgar folks are sharp and knowing��
  Only I am melancholy。
  Restless like the ocean��
  Blown about�察�I cannot stop。
  Other men can find employment��
  But I am stubborn�察�I am mean。

  Alone I am and different��
  Because I prize and seek
  My sustenance from the Mother��

  21

  The omnipresent Virtue will take shape
  According only to the Way。
  The Way itself is like some thing
  Seen in a dream�察�elusive�察�evading one。
  In it are images�察�elusive�察�evading one。
  In it are things like shadows in twilight。
  In it are essences�察�subtle but real��
  Embedded in truth。

  From of old until now��
  Under names without end��
  The First�察�the Beginning is seen。
  How do I know the beginning of all��
  What its nature may be��
  By these��

  22

  The crooked shall be made straight
  And the rough places plain��
  The pools shall be filled
  And the worn renewed��
  The needy shall receive
  And the rich shall be perplexed。

  So the Wise Man cherishes the One��
  As a standard to the world��
  Not displaying himself��
  He is famous��
  Not asserting himself��
  He is distinguished��
  Not boasting his powers��
  He is effective��
  Taking no pride in himself��
  He is chief。

  Because he is no competitor��
  No one in all the world
  can compete with him。

  The saying of the men of old
  Is not in vain��
  ;The crooked shall be made straight´;
  To be perfect�察�return to it。

  23

  Sparing indeed is nature of its talk��
  The whirlwind will not last the morning out��
  The cloudburst ends before the day is done。
  What is it that behaves itself like this��
  The earth and sky� �And if it be that these
  Cut short their speech�察�how much more yet should man��

  If you work by the Way��
  You will be of the Way��
  If you work through its virtue
  you will be given the virtue��
  Abandon either one
  And both abandon you。

  Gladly then the Way receives
  Those who choose to walk in it��
  Gladly too its power upholds
  Those who choose to use it well��
  Gladly will abandon greet
  Those who to abandon drift。

  Little faith is put in them
  Whose faith is small。

  24

  On tiptoe your stance is unsteady��
  Long strides make your progress unsure��
  Show off and you get no attention��
  Your boasting will mean you have failed��
  Asserting yourself brings no credit��
  Be proud and you will never lead。

  To persons of the Way�察�these traits
  Can only bring distrust�察�they seem
  Like extra food for parasites。
  So those who choose the Way��
  Will never give them place。

  25

  Something there is�察�whose veiled creation was
  Before the earth or sky began to be��
  So silent�察�so aloof and so alone��
  It changes not�察�nor fails�察�but touches all��
  Conceive it as the mother of the world。

  I do not know its name��
  A name for it is ;Way;��
  Pressed for designation��
  I call it Great。
  Great means outgoing��
  Outgoing�察�far´reaching��
  Far´reaching�察�return。

  The Way is great��
  The sky is great��
  The earth is great��
  The king also is great。
  Within the realm
  These four are great��
  The king but stands
  For one of them。

  Man conforms to the earth��
  The earth conforms to the sky��
  The sky conforms to the Way��
  The Way conforms to its own nature。

  26

  The heavy is foundation for the light��
  So quietness is master of the deed。

  The Wise Man�察�though he travel all the day��
  Will not be separated from his goods。
  So even if the scene is glorious to view��
  He keeps his place�察�at peace�察�above it all。

  For how can one who rules
  Ten thousand chariots
  Give up to lighter moods
  AS all the world may do��
  If he is trivial��
  His ministers are lost��
  If he is strenuous��
  There is no master then。

  27

  A good runner leaves no tracks。
  A good speech has no flaws to censure。
  A good computer uses no tallies。
  A good door is well shut without bolts and cannot be opened。
  A good knot is tied without rope and cannot be loosed。

  The Wise Man is always good at helping people��
  so that none are cast out��
  he is always good at saving things��
  so that none are thrown away。
  This is called applied intelligence。

  Surely the good man is the bad man's teacher��
  and the bad man is the good man's business。
  If the one does not respect his teacher��
  or the other doesn't love his business��
  his error is very great。

  This is indeed an important secret。

  28

  Be aware of your masculine nature��
  But by keeping the feminine way��
  You shall be to the world like a canyon��
  Where the Virtue eternal abides��
  And go back to become as a child。

  Be aware of the white all around you��
  But remembering the black that is there��
  You shall be to the world like a tester��
  Whom the Virtue eternal�察�unerring��
  Redirects to the infinite past。

  Be aware of your glory and honor��
  But in never relinquishing shame��
  You shall be to the world like a valley��
  Where Virtue eternal�察�sufficient��
  Sends you back to the Virginal Block。

  When the Virginal Block is asunder��
  And is made into several tools��
  To the ends of the Wise Man directed��
  They become then his chief officers��
  For ;The Master himself does not carve。;

  29

  As for those who would take the whole world
  To tinker as they see fit��
  I observe that they never succeed��
  For the world is a sacred vessel
  Not to be altered by man。
  The tinker will spoil it��
  Usurpers will lose it。

  For indeed there are things
  That must move ahead��
  While others must lag��
  And some that feel hot��
  While others feel cold��
  And some that are strong��
  While others are weak��
  And vigorous ones��
  While others worn out。

  So the Wise Man discards
  Extreme inclinations
  To make sweeping judgments��
  Or to a life of excess。

  30

  To those who would help
  The ruler of men
  By means of the Way��

  Let him not with his militant might
  Try to conquer the world��
  This tactic is like to recoil。
  For where armies have marched��
  There do briars spring up��
  Where great hosts are impressed��
  Years of hunger and evil ensue。

  The good man's purpose once attained��
  He stops at that��
  He will not press for victory。
  His point once made�察�he does not boast��
  Or celebrate the goal he gained��
  Or proudly indicate the spoils。
  He won the day because he must��
  But not by force or violence。

  That things with age decline in strength��
  You well may say�察�suits not the Way��
  And not to suit the Way is early death。

  31

  Weapons at best are tools of bad omen��
  Loathed and avoided by those of the Way。

  In the usage of men of good breeding��
  Honor is had at the left��
  Good omens belong on the left
  Bad omens belong on the right��
  And warriors press to the right��
  When the general stands at the right
  His lieutenant is placed at the left。
  So the usage of men of great power
  Follows that of the funeral rite。

  Weapons are tools of bad omen��
  By gentlemen not to be used��
  But when it cannot be avoided��
  They use them with calm and restraint。
  Even in victory's hour
  These tools are unlovely to see��
  For those who admire them truly
  Are men who in murder delight。

  As for those who delight to do murder��
  It is certain they never can get
  From the world what they sought when ambition
  Urged them to power and rule。

  A multitude slain� � and their death
  Is a matter for grief and for tears��
  The victory after a conflict
  Is a theme for a funeral rite。

  32

  The Way eternal has no name。
  A block of wood untooled�察�though small��
  May still excel the world。
  And if the king and nobles could
  Retain its potency for good��
  Then everything would freely give
  Allegiance to their rule。

  The earth and sky would then conspire
  To bring the sweet dew down��
  And evenly it would be given
  To folk without constraining power。

  Creatures came to be with order's birth��
  And once they had appeared��
  Came also knowledge of repose��
  And with that was security。

  In this world��
  Compare those of the Way
  To torrents that flow
  Into river and sea。

  33

  It is wisdom to know others��
  It is enlightenment to know one's self。

  The conqueror of men is powerful��
  The master of himself is strong。

  It is wealth to be content��
  It is willful to force one's way on others。

  Endurance is to keep one's place��
  Long life it is to die and not perish。

  34

  O the great Way o'erflows
  And spreads on every side��
  All beings come from it��
  No creature is denied。
  But having called them forth��
  It calls not one its own。
  It feeds and clothes them all
  And will not be their lord。
  Without desire always��
  It seems of slight import。
  Yet�察�nonetheless�察�in this
  Its greatness still appears��
  When they return to it��
  No creature meets a lord。

  The Wise Man�察�therefore�察�while he is alive��
  Will never make a show of being great��
  And that is how his greatness is achieved。

  35

  Once grasp the great Form without form��
  And you roam where you will
  With no evil to fear��
  Calm�察�peaceful�察�at ease。

  At music and viands
  The wayfarer stops。
  But the Way�察�when declared��
  Seems thin and so flavorless��

  It is nothing to look at
  And nothing to hear��
  But used�察�it will prove
  Inexhaustible。

  36

  What is to be shrunken
  Is first stretched out��
  What is to be weakened
  Is first made strong��
  What will be thrown over
  Is first raised up��
