that which is most good is like water. it is because water is not only good at benifiting the myraid creatures but also vies to dwellin the place detested by the multitude that it comes close to the way.
in a dwelling it is the site that is valued;
in quality of mind it is depth that is valued
in giving it is being like heaven that is valued;
in speech it is good faith that is valued;
in government it is order that is valued;
in affairs it is ability that is valued;
in action it is timeliness that is valued.
it is because it does not contend that it is never fault.
