[Also known as: "The jade-bead pendants of the royal cap"]

3 玉藻:
君无故不杀牛,大夫无故不杀羊,士无故不杀犬、豕。君子远庖厨,凡有血气之类,弗身践也。
Yu Zao:
Without some cause for it, a ruler did not kill an ox, nor a Great officer a sheep, nor a lower officer a pig or a dog. A superior man had his shambles and kitchen at a distance (from the) house; he did not tread wherever there was such a thing as blood or (tainted) air.
