and 子魚]), a native of Lu, and fifty years younger than Confucius. 33. Yen Hsing is followed on the east by Ts'ao Hsu, styled Tsze-hsun (曹卹, 字子循), a native of Ts'ai, fifty years younger than Confucius. 34. Next on the west is Po Ch'ien, styled Tsze-hsi, or, in the current copies of the 'Narratives of the School,' Tsze-ch'iai (伯虔, 字子皙 [al. 子析] or 子楷), a native of Lu, fifty years younger than Confucius. 35. Following Tsze-hsun is Kung-sun Lung [al. Ch'ung] styled Tsze-shih (公孫龍 [al. 寵], 字子石), whose birth is assigned by different writers to Wei, Ch'u, and Chao (趙). He was fifty-three years younger than Confucius. We have the following account:-- 'Tsze-kung asked Tsze-shih, saying, "Have you not learned the Book of' Poetry?" Tsze-shih replied, "What leisure have I to do so? My parents require me to be filial; my brothers require me to be submissive; and my friends require me to be sincere. What leisure have I for anything else?" "Come to my Master," said Tsze- kung, "and learn of him."' Sze-ma Ch'ien here observes: 'Of the thirty-five disciples which precede, we have some details. Their age and other particulars are found in the Books and Records. It is not so, however, in regard to the fifty-two which follow.' 36. Zan Chi, styled Tsze-ch'an [al. Chi-ch'an and Tsze-ta] (冉 季, 字子產 [al. 季產 and 子達), a native of Lu, whose place is the 11th, west, next to Po Ch'ien. 37. Kung-tsu Kau-tsze or simply Tsze, styled Tsze-chih (公 祖勾茲 [or simply 茲], 字子之), a native of Lu. His tablet is the 23rd, east, in the outer court. 38. Ch'in Tsu, styled Tsze-nan (秦祖, 字子南), a native of Ch'in. His tablet precedes that of the last, two places. 39. Ch'i-tiao Ch'ih, styled Tsze-lien (漆雕哆 [al. 侈], 字子斂), a native of Lu. His tablet is the 13th, west. 40. Yen Kao, styled Tsze-chiao (顏高字子驕). According to the 'Narratives of the School,' he was the same as Yen K'o (刻, or 剋), who drove the carriage when Confucius rode in Wei after the duke and Nan-tsze. But this seems doubtful. Other
