张之洞·《劝学篇·内篇·教忠第二》(节选)

此举其最大者,此外良法善政不可殚书,列圣继继绳绳,家法、心法相承无改二百五十余年,薄海臣民日游于高天厚地之中,长养涵濡,以有今日。试考中史二千年之内,西史五十年以前,其国政有如此之宽仁忠厚者乎?中国虽不富强,然天下之人,无论富贵贫贱皆得俯仰宽然,有以自乐其生;西国国势虽盛,而小民之愁苦怨毒者郁遏未伸,待机而发,以故弑君刺相之事岁不绝书,固知其政事亦必有不如我中国者矣。


In Praise of the Manchus (Excerpts)

For the past two hundred and fifty years, the officials and people within the boundaries of the Four Seas, daily marching between high Heaven and Mother Earth, have been nourished in their growth by unremitting care, down to the present day. If we compare the history of China for the past two thousand years with the histories of Western countries for the past fifty years, have their governments shown the generosity, the charity of heart, the loyalty, the sincerity of ours? Although China is neither rich nor strong, nevertheless all her people, rich, noble, poor, and humble alike, can pass their days in comfort, and rejoice that they were born into this world. Now although the countries of the West are flourishing, the sorrows of the masses, their sufferings, and the position of wrongs, which press them on all sides without redress, cause them to watch their opportunity for breaking out and murdering their sovereign or assassinating a minister, examples of which deeds are recorded every year. Thus we know that their form of government is most certainly not equal to that we have here in China.

(Herbert A. Giles 译)
