139. 有連山

Yu3 lien2 shan1 

Have connected hills 

There is the Lien shan system, 

Yu see line 14. 

Lien is composed of 車 ch'e a cart and the walking radical, and may possibly derive its meaning from a string of carts. 

Shan see line 13. [Lien shan is the name of a system of philosophy of permutations (line 135) said to have been invented by the Emperor 伏羲 Fu Hsi, B.C. 2953-2838, who began with the Diagram for hills.] 

140. 有歸藏

Yu3 kue1 tsang4 

Have return storehouse 

there is the Kuei tsang, 

Yu see line 14. 

Kuei is composed of a contraction of 婦 fu wife (line 56), 止 chih to stop (line 120) as radical, and an old form of 堆 tui a heap as phonetic. It originally meant the marriage of a woman, in which sense it will be found in the Odes. 

Tsang was originally 臧 tsang which is composed of 臣 ch'en (line 54) as radical inserted in 戕 ch'iang a spear, and which is now reserved for such meanings as good, right. The 艸 ts'ao vegetation was added later in order to mark the sense to conceal. In modern days it means a place for keeping things, a treasury; read ts'ang2 , the character means to conceal, to store up. [Kuei tsang was the system of the Emperor 神農 Shen Nung, B.C. 2838—2698, who began with the Diagram for earth. Eitel, borrowing from Wylie (Notes on Ch. Lit. p. 2), translates this term by Reverting Deposit; and further, again from Wylie, he makes the system in force under the 商 Shang dynasty (line 188), and that of line 139 in force under the 夏 Hsia dynasty (line 187).] 

141. 有周易 

Yu3 chou1 i4

Have chou change

and there is the system of Changes of the Chou dynasty; 

Yu see line 14. 

Chou is composed of 口 k'ou mouth as radical, with 用 yung to use (line 123), and originally meant close, dense, as population, etc. It is here the name of the dynasty which was really founded by 文王 King Wen, though he never mounted the throne, the first sovereign being his son 武王 King Wu, B.C. 1122 — 1115. The Book of Changes now in vogue is attributed to the pen of the father, who began with the Diagram for heaven. 

I see line 126. 

142. 三易詳

San1 i4 hsiang2

Three change elucidate

such are the three systems which elucidate the Changes. 

 

San see title. 

I see line 126. 

Hsiang see line 109. [Eitel translates this line by "These three theories of Permutations must be studied in detail. 11 But at the date of publication of the San Tzu Ching, the first two systems were no longer in existence, having disappeared many centuries before, so that it would be quite impossible to recommend them for study either in detail or otherwise. The word hsiang is often used as above, its position in the line being due to the jingle, and in any case presenting no syntactical difficulties.]
