See, their words endure in books, Open, read them, copy their knowledge, He who is taught becomes skilled. Don’t be evil, kindness is good, Make your memorial last through love of you. Increase the [people], befriend the town,..

Copy your fathers, your ancestors,See, their words endure in books,Open, read them, copy their knowledge,He who is taught becomes skilled.Don’t be evil, kindness is good..

It pleases the heart to ignore it.You have done what pleases their hearts.You have sustained people among them.Yet they cover their faces in fear of tomorrow.There was an old man who was about to die, while his son was a child without knowledge.
