萬石躬行不讀書,公孫張禹號名儒。
詩書何罪工發冢,自是諸生愛頷珠。
萬石躬行不讀書,公孫張禹號名儒。
詩書何罪工發冢,自是諸生愛頷珠。
萬石君一家躬行實踐而不讀詩書,
而公孫弘、張禹之流卻被稱作著名的儒者。
《詩經》《尚書》有什麼罪過,竟被精於盜墓的人利用?
這不過是那些儒生偏愛(像)蛤蟆額下明珠(般的虛名)罷了。
The Wan family practiced virtue without reading books,
Yet Gongsun and Zhang Yu were hailed as famed Confucian scholars.
What crime did the Books of Songs and History commit, to be so skilled in tomb-robbing?
It was merely these scholars' love for the pearl in the toad's forehead.
對歷史人物的評價,涉及對知識權威與真實認知的博弈。
借古諷今,批判名不副實的僞儒,強調真才實學。
本詩為七言絕句,押平聲韻。
