219· 陳九川錄

虔州将归,有诗别先生云:「良知何事系多闻,妙合当时已种根,好恶从之为圣学,将迎无处是乾元。」

先生曰:「若未来讲此学,不知说『好恶从之』从个甚么。」

敷英[1]在座曰:「诚然。尝读先生《大学古本序》,不知所说何事;及来听讲许时,乃稍知大意。」

虔州将归,有诗别先生:「良知何事系多闻,妙合当时已种根,好恶从之为圣学,将迎无处是乾元。」

先生说:「若不是来讲过这学问,不知『好恶从之』从个什么。」

敷英在座说:「诚然。曾读先生《大学古本序》,不知所云;及来听讲多时,才稍知大意。」

Leaving Qianzhou, I took a poem of farewell: 'What has innate knowledge to do with much hearing? Its wondrous accord was rooted from the first; good and evil following it is the sagely learning; nowhere to forestall or cling — that is heaven's spring.'

The Master said: 'Had you not come to this learning, who knows what good-and-evil-following would follow.'

Fuying, present, said: 'Truly so. I once read your preface to the old text of the Great Learning and understood nothing; only after long attendance do I faintly grasp the drift.'
