何謂四靈?麟鳳龜龍,謂之四靈。故龍以為畜,故魚鮪不淰;鳳以為畜,故鳥不獝;麟以為畜,故獸不狘;龜以為畜,故人情不失。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]
何谓四灵?麟凤龟龙,谓之四灵。故龙以为畜,故鱼鲔不淰;凤以为畜,故鸟不獝;麟以为畜,故兽不狘;龟以为畜,故人情不失。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]- From: The Book of Rites, c. 4th – 2nd century BCE, translated based on James Legge's version
- Héwèi sìlíng? Línfèngguīlóng, wèi zhī sìlíng. Gù lóng yǐwéi xù, gù yúwěi bùshěn; fèng yǐwéi xù, gù niǎo bùyù; lín yǐwéi xù, gù shòu bùxuè; guī yǐwéi xù, gù rénqíng bùshī.
- What were the four numinous creatures? They were the lin, the feng, the tortoise, and the dragon. When the dragon becomes a domestic animal, (all other) fishes and the paddlefish do not dive underwater scared (from men). When the feng becomes so, the birds do not fly from them in terror. When the Qi-lin does so, the beasts do not scamper away. When the tortoise does so, the feelings of men take no erroneous course.
