CHAPTER LIV - THE WITNESS OF WISDOM.
1. If a man plant according to the Tao it will never be uprooted; if he thus gather, it will never be lost. His sons and his son's sons, one following another, shall honour the shrine of their ancestor.
2. The Tao, applied to oneself, strengtheneth the Body, to the family, bringeth wealth; to the district, prosperity; to the state, great fortune. Let it be the Law of the Kingdom, and all men will increase in virtue.
3. Thus we observe its effect in every case, as to the person, the family, the district, the state, and the kingdom.
4. How do I know that this is thus universal under Heaven? By experience.
