36 月令:
是月也,天子始絺。命野虞出行田原,為天子勞農勸民,毋或失時。命司徒巡行縣鄙,命農勉作,毋休于都
Yue Ling:
In this month the son of Heaven begins to wear thin dolichos cloth. Orders are given to the foresters throughout the country to go forth over the fields and plains, and, for the son of Heaven, to encourage the husbandmen, and stimulate them to work, and not let the season slip by unimproved. Orders are (also) given to the minister of Instruction to travel in order through the districts to the borders, charging the husbandmen to work vigorously, and not to rest in the towns.
