6 墾令:
聲服無通於百縣,則民行作不顧,休居不聽。休居不聽,則氣不淫;行作不顧,則意必壹。意壹而氣不淫,則草必墾矣。
Order to Cultivate Waste...:
If music and fine clothing do not penetrate to all the districts, the people, when they are at work, will pay no attention to the latter, and when they are at rest, will not listen to the former. If, at rest, they do not listen to the one, their spirits will not become licentious; and if, at work, they pay no attention to the other, their minds are concentrated. If their minds are concentrated and their spirits not licentious, then it is certain waste lands will be brought under cultivation.
