無厚篇

天於人，無厚也。君於民，無厚也。父於子，無厚也。兄於弟，無厚也。何以言之？天不能屏勃厲之氣，全夭折之人，使為善之民必壽，此於民無厚也。凡民有穿窬為盜者，有詐偽相迷者，此皆生於不足，起於貧窮，而君必執法誅之，此於民無厚也。堯舜位為天子，而丹朱商均為布衣，此於子無厚也。周公誅管蔡，此於弟無厚也。推此言之，何厚之有？循名責實，君之事也。奉法宣令，臣之職也。下不得自擅，上操其柄而不理者，未之有也。君有三累，臣有四責。何謂三累：惟親所信，一累。以名取士，二累。近故親疏，三累。何謂四責：受重賞而無功，一責。居大位而不治，二責。理官而不平，三責。御軍陣而奔北，四責。君無三累，臣無四責，可以安國。

勢者，君之輿。威者，君之策。臣者，君之馬。民者，君之輪。世固則輿安，威定則策勁。臣順則馬良，民和則輪利。為國失此，必有覆車奔馬折輪敗載之患。安得不危！輪敗策折，馬奔輿覆，則載者亦傾矣（此三句從意林補�... Continue reading book >>
