Scholars of the highest class,
when they hear about the Tao,
earnestly carry it into practice. Scholars of the middle class, when

it, seem now to keep it and now to lose it.
Scholars of the lowest class,
when they have heard about it, laugh

Tao, when brightest seen, seems light to lack;
Who progress in it makes, seems drawing back;

Its greatest beauty seems to offend the eyes;

Its firmest virtue seems but poor and low;
Its solid truth seems change
to undergo;
Its largest square doth yet no corner show
A vessel great, it is the slowest made;
Loud is its sound,
but never word it said;
A semblance great, the shadow of a shade.'
