CHU YUNG-CH'UN. Maxims for a Well Governed Household.
Translated with a Preface by Edward H. Kaplan. Bellingham: 1971, 4to, 10 pp. In the original perfect bound printed wraps, as issued. Here are a few of the maxims from this 17th century essay: "Be simple and plain in your own personal life but resort to the best possible way to bring up your children" and "If you unthinkingly listen to whatever is said, how will you be able to identify slander? You ought to patiently think things over three times. If you are contentious, how will you know when you're not right? You must calm your self and then reconsider a situation."
