《礼记·檀弓上》
夫子说： 和家庭财力 如何掌握厚与薄的标准呢？  如果财力雄厚，也不可超过礼数的规定。如果财力不足，夫子说：只要衣被可以遮体，敛毕就葬，用手拉着绳子下棺，如此尽力而为，也不会有人责怪他失礼呀。 
夫子曰： 有，毋过礼；茍亡矣，敛首足形，还葬，县棺而封，人岂有非之者哉！ 
The Master said: How to grasp the standard of thickness and fineness according to the family's financial resources? If the financial resources are abundant, they should not exceed the provisions of etiquette. If the financial resources are insufficient, the Master said: As long as the clothes can cover the body, bury them as soon as they are collected, and use hands to pull the rope to lower the coffin. In this case, he will not be blamed for being impolite.
