Diligence brings results; play brings no profit. Take heed, and put your strength into it.

From the Father's Lecture Notes
One group, twelve characters, and the year is done. This lecture teaches nothing new. Read the whole text through once from the beginning, then write your child a letter and paste it on the last page of the booklet. This lecture is a ceremony, not a lesson.
Translated from Yikonglu's Father's Lecture Notes for the Three Character Classic, written for a parent teaching a child.
