55	道德經:	含德之厚，比於赤子。 蜂蠆虺蛇不螫，猛獸不據，攫鳥不搏。 骨弱筋柔而握固。 未知牝牡之合而全作，精之至也。 終日號而不嗄，和之至也。 知和曰常，知常曰明，益生曰祥。 心使氣曰強。 物壯則老，謂之不道，不道早已。

Poisonous insects will not sting him; fierce beasts will not seize him; birds of prey will not strike him. (The infant's) bones are weak and its sinews soft, but yet its grasp is firm. It knows not yet the union of male and female, and yet its virile member may be excited; - showing the perfection of its physical essence. All-day long it will cry without its throat becoming hoarse; - showing the harmony (in its constitution).

55

He who possesses virtue in abundance is like a newly born infant.

Poisonous insects will not sting him;

Wild beasts will not seize him;

Birds of prey will not attack him.

His bones are soft, his muscles weak, but his grasp is strong.

He has not experienced the union of male and female,

And yet is fully virile:

His essence is complete.

He can cry all day without getting hoarse.

This is harmony at its height.

Knowing harmony is to know what is eternal.

Knowing what is eternal is to be enlightened.

It is inauspicious to try to improve on life,

And harmful to regulate breathing by conscious control.

To strive for too many results in exhaustion.

These actions are contrary to Tao.

And what is contrary to Tao soon comes to an early end.
