《论语》、《孟子》，旧各为帙。《大学》、《中庸》，旧《礼记》之二篇。其编为《四书》，自宋淳熙始。其悬为令甲，则自元延祐复科举始。古来无是名也。然二戴所录《曲礼》、《檀弓》诸篇，非一人之书，迨立名曰《礼记》，《礼记》遂为一家。即王逸所录屈原、宋玉诸篇，《汉志》均谓之赋，迨立名曰《楚辞》，《楚辞》亦遂为一家。元邱葵《周礼补亡序》称圣朝以“六经”取士，则当时固以《四书》为一经。前创后因，久则为律，是固难以一说拘矣。今从《明史·艺文志》例，别立《四书》一门，亦所谓礼以义起也。朱彝尊《经义考》于《四书》之前仍立《论语》、《孟子》二类；黄虞稷《千顷堂书目》，凡说《大学》、《中庸》者，皆附于礼类，盖欲以不去饩羊，略存古义。然朱子书行五百载矣，赵岐、何晏以下，古籍存者寥寥；梁武帝《义疏》以下，且散佚并尽；元、明以来之所解，皆自《四书》分出者耳。《明史》并入《四书》，盖循其实。今亦不复强析其名焉。

After the result of pre-invasive, long compared with law, is a solid hard to carry on that arrest. This from the "History of the Ming Art and Literature" cases, do not stand the "Four Books" 1, also called from the ceremony to have meaning. Zhu Yi-zun "The meaning of test," in the "Four Books" still stand before the "Analects of Confucius", "Mencius" class; Huang Yu Ji, "1000 ares Bibliography", who said, "University", "moderate" who are attached to the ceremony, class, trying to use do not cover grain ration of sheep, a little deposit of old meanings.
