注：○多方：学博也。《庄子·天下》：“惠施多方，其书五车。”○微言：微妙之言。刘歆《移书让太常博士》：“及夫子没而微言绝，七十子卒而大义乖。”○道枢：《庄子·齐物论》:“彼是莫得其偶，谓之道枢。”人极：沈约《梁明堂登歌·歌黑帝》：“祚我无疆，永隆人极。”○道枢二句译原文之“来如流水兮逝如风”，道枢句衬意，水迹句正言。○魏新河兄译云：“亦知弘道似栽松，千尺干云有始终。却看此身何所有，来如流水去如风。”
With them the seed of Wisdom did I sow,
And with mine own hand wrought to make it grow;
And this was all the Harvest that I reap'd—
"I came like Water, and like Wind I go."
