《礼记·祭统》
这就叫做夫妇一道亲自主持祭祀。到了舞乐开始的时候，国君手执干戚站到舞位上，国君站在靠东边的上位，头戴冠冕，手执盾牌，率领群臣起舞，供代表祖先的皇尸娱乐。
及入舞，君执干戚就舞位，君为东上，冕而揔干，率其群臣，以乐皇尸。
This was called the husband and wife conducting the sacrifice together. When the music and dancing for the sacrifice began, the prince took the jade drumstick and stood in the place of dancing. Standing on the east steps, the prince, with the crown and shield in his hand, led the officials in dancing to entertain the spirit of the royal ancestors.
