| 2 | 深衣: | 制：十有二幅以应十有二月；袂圜以应规；曲袷如矩以应方；负绳及踝以应直；下齐如权衡以应平。 |
| Shen Yi: | In the making (of the garment) twelve strips (of the cloth) were used, to correspond to the twelve months. The sleeve was made round, as if fashioned by a disk. The opening at the neck was square, as if made by means of that instrument so named. The cord-like (seam) at the back descended to the ankles, as if it had been a straight line. The edge at the bottom was like the steelyard of a balance, made perfectly even. |
