| | 月令: |
仲春行秋令，則其國大水，寒氣總至，寇戎來征。行冬令，則陽氣不勝，麥乃不熟，民多相掠。行夏令，則國乃大旱，暖氣早來，蟲螟為害。 |
| Yue Ling: |
If in this second month of spring the governmental proceedings proper to autumn were observed, there would be great floods, in the states; cold airs would be constantly coming; and plundering attacks would be frequent. If those of winter were observed, the warm and genial airs would be insufficient; the wheat would not ripen; and raids and strifes would be rife among the people. If those of summer were observed, there would be great droughts among the people; the hot airs would come too early; and caterpillars and other insects would harm the grain. |
| | 月令: |
季春行冬令，則寒氣時發，草木皆肅，國有大恐。行夏令，則民多疾疫，時雨不降，山林不收。行秋令，則天多沉陰，淫雨蚤降，兵革并起。 |
| Yue Ling: |
If, in this last month of spring, the governmental proceedings proper to winter were observed, cold airs would constantly be prevailing; all plants and trees would decay; and in the states there would be great terrors. If those proper to summer were observed, many of the people would suffer from pestilential diseases; the seasonable rains would not fall; and no produce would be derived from the mountains and heights. If those proper to autumn were observed, the sky would be full of moisture and gloom; excessive rains would fall early; and warlike movements would be everywhere arising. |
| | 月令: |
季夏行春令，則穀實鮮落，國多風咳，民乃遷徙。行秋令，則丘隰水潦，禾稼不熟，乃多女災。行冬令，則風寒不時，鷹隼蚤鷙，四鄙入保。 |
| Yue Ling: |
If, in the last month of summer, the governmental proceedings proper to spring were observed, the produce of grain would be scanty and fail; in the states there would be many colds and coughs; and the people would remove to other places. If the proceedings proper to autumn were observed, even the high grounds would be flooded; the grain that had been sown would not ripen; and there would be many miscarriages among women. If those proper to winter were observed, the winds and cold would come out of season; the hawks and falcons would prematurely attack their prey; and all along the four borders people would enter their places of shelter. |

仲春之月，招搖指卯，昏弧中，旦建星中。其位東方，其日甲乙，其蟲鱗，其音角，律中夾鍾，其數八，其味酸，其臭膻，其祀戶，祭先脾。始雨水，桃李始華，蒼庚鳴，鷹化為鳩。天子衣青衣，乘蒼龍，服蒼玉，建青旗，食麥與羊，服八風水，爨萁燧火，東宮御女青色，衣青采，鼓琴瑟，其兵矛，其畜羊，朝于青陽太廟。命有司，省囹圄，去桎梏，毋笞掠，止獄訟。養幼小，存孤獨，以通句萌。擇元日，令民社。是月也，日夜分，雷始發聲，蟄蟲咸動蘇。先雷三日，振鐸以令於兆民，曰：「雷且發聲，有不戒其容止者，生子不備，必有凶災。」令官市，同度量，鈞衡石，角鬥稱。毋竭川澤，毋漉陂池，毋焚山林，毋作大事，以妨農功。祭不用犧牲，用圭璧，更皮幣。仲春行秋令，則其國大水，寒氣總至，寇戎來征。行冬令，則陽氣不勝，麥乃不熟，民多相殘。行夏令，則其國氣早來，蟲螟為害。二月官倉，其樹杏。 |
