1. Ancient texts and translations

Original text

People in the Song Dynasty had cultivators. There was a plant in the field. A rabbit walked along and touched the plant. It broke its neck and died. Because he released his weeds and guarded the plant, he hoped to get the rabbit again. The rabbit cannot be recovered, but as a Song Dynasty, it laughs. Today, if we want to use the government of the previous kings to govern the people of the current world, they will all be like Zhuzhu. ?

Translation

There was a farmer in the Song Dynasty who had a tree stump in his field. One day, a hare, which was running very fast, bumped into a tree stump, broke its neck and died. So the farmer put down his farm tools and stood by the tree stump day and night, hoping to get another rabbit.

However, it was impossible to get the hare again, and he himself was ridiculed by the people of Song Dynasty. Now, if you want to use the strategies of governing the country in the past to govern the people of today, you are making the same mistake of waiting for the rabbit to come!
