80 月令:
是月也,霜始降,則百工休。乃命有司曰:寒氣總至,民力不堪,其皆入室。上丁,命樂正入學習吹。
Yue Ling:
In this month the hoar-frost begins to fall; and all labours cease (for a season). Orders are given to the proper officers, saying, 'The cold airs are all coming, and the people will not be able to endure them. Let all enter within their houses (for a time).' On the first ting day orders are given to the chief Director of music to enter the college, and to practise (with his pupils) on the wind instruments.
