     此六君者所染不当，故国家残亡，身为刑戮，宗庙破灭，绝无后类，君臣离散，民人流亡。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]

     From: Mozi, circa 4^th century BCE, translated based on Y. P. Mei's version

     Cǐ liù jūn zhě suǒ rǎn bùdàng, gù guójiā cánwáng, shēn wéi xínglù, zōngmiào pòmiè, jué wú hòulèi, jūnchén lísàn, mínrén liúwáng. [Pinyin]

     Now, these six princes had been under bad influences. Therefore their states were ruined and they were executed, their ancestral temples were destroyed and descendants annihilated. The rulers and the subjects were dispersed and the people were left homeless.
