Preface

IN the Preface to the third volume of these 'Sacred Books of the East' (1879), I stated that I proposed giving in due course, in order to exhibit the System of Taoism, translations of the Tao Teh King by Laojze (sixth century B.C.), the Writings of Kwangjze (between the middle of the fourth and third centuries B.C.), and the Treatise of 'Actions and their Retributions' (of our eleventh century); and perhaps also of one or more of the other characteristic Productions of the System.

The two volumes now submitted fulfilment of the promise made so long ago. They contain versions of the Three Works which were specified, and, in addition, as Appendixes, four other shorter Treatises of Taoism; Analyses of several of the Books of Kwangjze by Lin Hsikung; a list of the stories which form so important a part of those Books; two Essays by two of the greatest Scholars of China, written the one in A. D. 586 and illustrating the Taoistic beliefs of that age, and the other in A. D. 1078 and dealing with the four Books of Kwangjze, whose genuineness is frequently called in question. The concluding Index is confined very much to Proper Names. For Subjects the reader is referred to the Tables of Contents, the Introduction to the Books of Kwangjze (vol. xxxix, pp. 127-163), and the Introductory Notes to the various Appendixes.
