Excerpt from The Chinese Classics, Vol. 1 of 7: With a Translation, Critical and Exegetical Notes, Prolegomena, and Copious Indexes; Containing Confucian Analects, the Great Learning, and the Doctrine of the Mean The preface to the former edition of this volume, when it was published at Hongkong in 1 861 commenced with the preceding paragraphs.
