《逸周书·卷六·尝麦解》
如今我小子听到古代遗训而不述说，因为有我祖父文王的话不会改变，我利用皇天的功德，不忘敬重上天的法典，使我们周朝大治。因此，我们众位族长和州伯教诲于我，要审视大国殷朝的末代君王有背古训，自行作乱，使其国灭，在冀州的族类也失掉了一一这一教训。
 今予小子闻有古遗训，亦述朕文考之言，不易，予用，皇威不忘，祗天之明典，令□我大治，用我九宗正州伯，教告于我，相在大国，有殷之□，辟自其作□于古，是威厥邑，无类于冀州。
Now, my little son, you have heard the ancient legacy and have not recounted it, because the words of my grandfather King Wen will not change. I use the merit of the Heavenly Emperor and do not forget the codes of Heaven, so that our Zhou dynasty will be well-governed. Therefore, all of our clan leaders and state overseers taught me to examine the last rulers of the great Yin dynasty, who turned their backs on the ancient legacy and caused chaos, resulting in the destruction of their country, and the loss of the homes of their kin in Jizhou.
