仲尼適楚，	When Zhongni was on his way to Chu,
出於林中，	as he issued from a forest,
見痀僂者承蜩，	he saw a hunchback receiving cicadas (on the point of a rod),
猶掇之也。	as if he were picking them up with his hand.
仲尼曰：「子巧乎？	'You are clever!' said he to the man.
有道邪？	Is there any method in it?
曰：「我有道也。	The hunchback replied, 'There is.
五六月累丸，	For five or six months,
二而不墜，	I practised with two pellets, till they never fell down,
則失者錙銖；	and then I only failed with a small fraction of the cicadas (which I tried to catch).
累三而不墜，	Having succeeded in the same way with three (pellets),
則失者十一；	I missed only one cicada in ten.
累五而不墜，	Having succeeded with five,
猶掇之也。	I caught the cicadas as if I were gathering them.
吾處身也若厥株拘，	My body is to me no more than the stump of a broken trunk,
吾執臂也若槁木之枝，	and my shoulder no more than the branch of a rotten tree.
雖天地之大，	Great as heaven and earth are,
萬物之多，	and multitudinous as things are,
而唯蜩翼之知。	I take no notice of them, but only of the wings of my cicadas;
吾不反不側，	neither turning nor inclining to one side.
不以萬物易蜩之翼，	I would not for them all exchange the wings of my cicadas
何為而不得！」	- how should I not succeed in taking them?'
孔子顧謂弟子曰：	Confucius looked round, and said to his disciples,
「用志不分，	'"Where the will is not diverted from its object,
乃凝於神，	the spirit is concentrated"
其痀僂丈人之謂乎！」	- this might have been spoken of this hunchback gentleman.'
