37 樂記:
所謂大輅者,天子之車也。龍旗九旒,天子之旌也。青黑緣者,天子之寶龜也。從之以牛羊之群,則所以贈諸侯也。
Yue Ji:
What is called 'a Grand carriage' is one which is (the gift) of the son of Heaven; the flag with dragons, and a nine-scolloped border, was the banner (conferred by) the son of Heaven; that with the azure and black edging exhibited the precious tortoises, and was (also the gift of) the son of Heaven; and when these were followed by herds of oxen and sheep, they were the gifts bestowed on the feudal lords.
