河中石獸

　　滄州南，一寺臨河干(gān)，山門圮(pǐ)于河，二石獸并沉焉。閱十余歲，僧募金重修，求石獸于水中，竟不可得。以為順流下矣，棹(zhào)數小舟，曳(yè)鐵鈀(pá)，尋十余里，無跡。

　　一講學家設帳寺中，聞之笑曰：“爾輩不能究物理，是非木杮(fèi)，豈能為暴漲攜之去?乃石性堅重，沙性松浮，湮(yān)于沙上，漸沉漸深耳。沿河求之，不亦顛乎?”眾服為確論。

　　一老河兵聞之，又笑曰：“凡河中失石，當求之于上流。蓋石性堅重，沙性松浮，水不能沖石，其反激之力，必于石下迎水處嚙(niè)沙為坎穴，漸激漸深，至石之半，石必倒擲坎穴中。如是再嚙，石又再轉，再轉不已，遂反溯流逆上矣。求之下流，固顛;求之地中，不更顛乎?”

　　如其言，果得于數里外。然則天下之事，但知其一，不知其二者多矣，可據理臆(yì)斷歟(yú)?

英文翻譯

　　The south of Cangzhou, there is a temple near the river, Front Gate collapsed monastery in the river, the two stone animals in front of the sink in the river. After more than ten years, the monks to raise money to build temples, and find the stone animals in the river, did not find. The monks that stone animals drift down the stream to the downstream. Then draw a few boats with iron, palladium, swim down to find any trace of ten li, no stone beast. A scholar teaching in the temple, heard it said: "you guys can't imagine things. This is not the wood, how can be the flood surge away? Should be the characteristics of this stone is hard and heavy, the characteristics of the sand soft floating, buried in the sand stone, deeper and deeper. Down the river to find the two stone beast, not crazy?" We are convinced that this is the appropriate exact speech. A river of old soldiers heard this point of view, smiled and said: "who is lost in the big rock in the river, should be the upper reaches of the river to find. Because of the characteristics of stone is hard and heavy, the characteristics of the sand soft floating, water can not be washed stone, (but) water recoil force, will form a pothole in local scouring sand beneath stones in water. More and more deep, rushed to the bottom half of the stone, stone must fall in the pit in the. Like this impact, the stone will again turn over forward, turn to stop, so the stone animal stone instead of upstream. To the downstream looking for stone animals, is crazy; look for them in the autochthonous depths, not more crazy?" The monks in accordance with the old soldiers do, indeed as expected in the upstream several miles to find the stone animals. Things in the world, only know things one way, but don't know it's a case of too much, can according to some truth to subjective judgment?
