《月令 - Yue Ling》 | English translation: James Legge [?] | Books referencing 《月令》 Library Resources |
55 | 月令: | 是月也,土潤溽暑,大雨時行,燒薙行水,利以殺草,如以熱湯。可以糞田疇,可以美土強。 |
Yue Ling: | In this month the ground lies steaming and wet beneath the heats, for great rains are (also) continually coming. They burn the grass lying cut upon the ground and bring the water over it. This is as effectual to kill the roots as hot water would be; and the grass thus serves to manure the fields of grain and hemp, and to fatten the ground which has been but just marked out for cultivation. |
