子谓公冶长[1]:“可妻也,虽在缧绁[2]
之中,非其罪也。”以其子妻之。子谓南容[3]:
“邦有道,不废;邦无道,免于刑戮。”以其
兄之子妻之。
The Master said of Kung-ye Ch’ang that he
might be wived; although he was put in bonds, he
had not been guilty of any crime. Accordingly, he
gave him his own daughter to wife. Of Nan Yung he
said that if the country were well governed he would
not be out of office, and if it were ill-governed, he
would escape punishment and disgrace. He gave him
the daughter of his own elder brother to wife.
