VII The Wo Chiang; narrative. An ode appropriate to a sacrifice to King Wên, associated with Heaven, in the brilliant hall. My offerings here are given, A ram, a bull. Accept them, mighty Heaven, All-bountiful. Thy statutes, O great king, I keep, I love; So on the realm to bring Peace from above. p. 438 From Wên comes blessing rich; Now on the right He owns those gifts to which Him I invite. Do I not night and day Revere great Heaven, That thus its favor may To Chou be given?
