10[1]

When the people are weary they think of ease; when the government
is harsh they think of jên, when punishments are severe they
think of peace, and when the state is in disorder they think of
Heaven. The Ode says,[1]

I have no strength [to do anything],
And so think of [the Power in] the azure vault.
