TrTranslation
曰國風,曰雅頌,號四詩,當諷詠。
The Airs of the States, the Greater and Lesser Elegantiae and the Hymns are called the four parts of the Odes; they should be chanted aloud.
詩既亡,春秋作,寓褒貶,別善惡。
When the Odes had lost their force, the Spring and Autumn was written, with praise and blame tucked into its wording to tell good from bad.
三傳者,有公羊,有左氏,有穀梁。
The three commentaries are the Gongyang, the Zuo and the Guliang.
Draft translation; it will be revised when the lecture is filmed.
From the Father's Lecture Notes
Two books, two ways of writing. The Odes were sung; the Spring and Autumn was weighed word by word. One asks you to read aloud, the other to look hard. The best way to teach this lecture is to do both on the spot: read one poem aloud, and weigh one word.
Translated from Yikonglu's Father's Lecture Notes for the Three Character Classic, written for a parent teaching a child.
