Duke Ai asked Tzŭ-hsia, "Is it necessarily true that only after
study one can keep a state at peace and protect the people?"

Tzŭ-hsia said, "There has never been such a thing as keeping
a state at peace and protecting the people without having studied."

Duke Ai said, "Did the Five Emperors then have their
teachers?"

Tzŭ-hsia said, "I have heard that Huang-ti studied under
T`ai-chên.[2] Chuan-hsü studied under Lu T`u.[3] The Emperor K`u
studied under Ch`ih Sung-tzŭ.[4] Yao studied under Wu-ch`êng
Tzŭ-fu. Shun studied under Yin Shou.[5] Yŭ studied under Hsi-wang
Kuo.[6] T`ang studied under Tai Tzŭ-hsiang.[7] King Wên
studied under Hsi-ch`ou Tzŭ-ssŭ.[8] King Wu studied under T`aikung.
The Duke of Chou studied under Kuo Shu.[9] Chung-ni
studied under Lao Tan. Had these eleven sages not met with
these teachers, it would not have been possible for their accomplishments[10]

to appear in the empire, or for their names to be
transmitted to later generations."

The Ode says,[11]

Erring in nothing, forgetful of nothing,
Observing and following the old statutes.
