Praise: The essence of Yang and the mirror of fire, the spirit of Yin and the reservoir of water. Inheritance and projection, embodying brightness and darkness. The light hangs over the canopy, encompassing all scenes. The positions are occupied by ministers and assistants, with signs at the street gates. Disasters arise, and spirits take wing. Do not forget the people's fears, and the debates over flaws and imperfections. If you heed the will of heaven, the hearth will also have much to say.
