|
Thirty spokes meet at a nave;
|
|
Because of the hole we may use the wheel.
|
|
Clay is moulded into a vessel;
|
|
Because of the hollow we may use the cup.
|
|
Walls are built around a hearth;
|
|
Because of the doors we may use the house.
|
|
Thus tools come from what exists,
|
|
But use from what does not.
