君卷冕立於阼，夫人副褘立于房中。君肉袒迎牲于門；夫人薦豆籩。卿、大夫贊君，命婦贊夫人：各揚其職。百官廢職服大刑，而天下大服。

The ruler, in his dragon-figured robe and cap with pendants, stood at the eastern steps; and his wife, in her head-dress and embroidered robe, stood in her room. The ruler, with shoulder bared, met the victim at the gate; his wife brought in the stands for the dishes. The ministers and Great officers assisted the ruler; their wives assisted his wife. Each one discharged the duty proper to him or her. Any officer who neglected his duty was severely punished; and throughout the kingdom there was a great acknowledgment of, and submission to, (the worth of the duke of Zhou).
