IT lies in the nature of Grand Virtue
To follow the Tao and the Tao
alone.
Now what is the Tao?
It is Something elusive and
evasive.
Evasive and elusive!
And yet It contains within Itself a
Form.
Elusive and evasive!
And yet It contains within Itself a
Substance.
Shadowy and dim!
And yet It contains within Itself a Core
of Vitality.
The Core of Vitality is very real,
It contains within
Itself an unfailing Sincerity.
Throughout the ages Its Name has been
preserved
In order to recall the Beginning of all things.
How do I
know the ways of all things at the Beginning?
By what is within me.
