Section 347 Divination of the place where the deceased is buried
Outside the door, the guests on the east side took their places to the north, with the west as the first priority. Outside the door, the guests on the west side take their positions to the north, taking the east as the first place, and the guests standing on the west side are in their positions to the east and taking the north as the first place. The mourner takes his place and opens the door. Then the woman beat her breasts in mourning, but did not weep. The mourner bows to the guests, first to the west, then to the south, and finally to the east, 3 times on each side; Then turn right to the door and cry.
The woman slapped her chest and wept. The mourner is at the northernmost end of the east wall under the church, facing west. All the brothers were in their places, and they were in the same rank as they were when they were outside the door. Doctor Qing is in place to the south of the mourner. The princes are seated a little in front of the east of the door, and the foreign dignitaries are in place a little in front of the west of the door. If the status is the same, the mourner must first bow down to the distinguished guests of another country. For all doctors, the mourners must bow down one by one according to their position. The mourners who had removed the funeral washed their hands outside the door, entered first with candles, and ascended the main hall from the east steps. The man slapped his chest and cried.
Xia Zhu took the sweet wine and stood facing the north, and many deacons either took the wine and stood on the east side of Xia Zhu, or took the ceremonial beans, bamboo sticks, and figurines, and stood facing the south, taking the west as the first place. Xia Zhu took the sweet wine, went out first and walked down the main hall, and many deacons took wine, beans, bamboo sticks, and figurines, and came out in turn, and walked down the main hall from the west steps.
The woman slapped her chest and wept. The offerings were then placed on the southwest side of the east wall under the main hall, aligned with the west wing of the roof. Xia Zhu took the sweet wine, stood facing north, and took the west as the first place; The person holding the ceremonial bean places the bean facing west and then stands south on the north side of the bean. After the person holding the bean and the bean has placed it, he stands on the west side of the person who has set the bean, and takes the east as the first place. The person holding the wine places the wine and returns it to its original position. At this time, after placing the sweet wine on the west side, Xia Zhu left first, and walked from the north side of the mourning lord to the memorial place where the food was placed, and many deacons also followed.
So the court was set up, Xia Zhu took sweet wine, and many deacons took wine, dried meat, meat sauce, etc., and ascended the main hall from the east steps. At this time, the man patted his chest and cried, and walked indoors. The sacrificial seats are set up as before, and the beans are first and the sake is sweetened, but because there are no pickles and chestnuts, there are no towels. After the deacons had set up their seats, they went out of their chambers and stood on the west side of the household, putting the west first.
Xia Zhu immediately extinguished the candle, walked out of the room, closed the door, and walked down the main hall from the west steps, followed by many deacons. The woman slapped her chest and wept. The people who set up the memorial walk eastward from the south side of the heavy one. The man slapped his chest and cried. When the guests walked out of the room, the woman patted her chest and wept, and the mourner sent the guests off. Many of the masters came out of the room, and the women patted their breasts and wept. When you walk out the door, stop crying. The guests, the hosts, and the brothers returned to their places on the east side of the door. The mourner closes the door and sends off the guests. Then bow to the masters and thank them, and each has a place to rest and mourn in the chalk room.
On the first day of each month, the memorial service is set up as at the funeral, with 1 pig, fish and dried rabbits, and 3 tripods on display. The offerings on the east side are the same as those at the time of the burial. The difference between the sacrifice of the new moon and the burial is that the funeral has ceremonial utensils, while this one has no ceremonial utensils, and the funeral has no millet and millet rice, while this one has millet and millet rice. Millet and millet are packed in a pottery ritual vessel, covered with a don't, and placed in the place of the ceremonial vessel at the time of the burial.
The mourning lord bows to the guests, and the etiquette of worshipping the guests when crying in the morning and evening is the same, and after the funeral is completed, the mourning of yesterday is removed. Then lift the tripod to the door, and raise the animal from the tripod, just like when the great burial was laid. After carrying the carcass of the animal with a dagger, he put the dagger in the middle of the tripod and placed it in its proper position. The man carrying the dagger then withdrew in the opposite direction. The Dians removed 3 empty tripods. The order of the offerings in the room is as follows: first sweet wine, second pickles, second meat sauce, second millet grass, and finally figurin.
The position of the sacrifices in the room is as follows: the ceremonial beans for meat sauce are in the north, the ceremonial beans for sauerkraut are in the south, and the pigs are placed in the position of the ceremonial utensils during the funeral. Open the Dungai and place it on the south side of the Dun. The position of the dessert wine is the same as at the time of the burial. Xia Zhu stood on the south side, and the person holding the ritual bean stood on the north side, holding a towel together, laying the foundation that had been set up, and then retreating from the main hall. The men and women of the mourners and the families of the mourners pause and clap their breasts and weep according to the time, the men pause and clap their breasts and weep when they are raised, and the women pause and crie when they descend, and the etiquette is the same as when they cry in the morning and evening.
The sacrifice set up at the middle of the moon is the same as the laying of the morning and evening, and there is no altar for the carcass. If the newly ripened grains and fresh fruits are received, the sacrifice must be the same as the foundation of the new moon, and there will be a sacrifice for the body. When removing the sau, the sweet wine should be removed first, and the rest of the offerings set up first should be removed first, and those set up later should be removed. When the tun is removed, the lid does not need to be closed again, and the feet of the tun are facing forward, and the order of exiting the hall and leaving the room is the same as when he ascends to the room. The ceremonial table is placed on the southwest side under the east wall of the exterior in the same order as it was in the room.
The place where the deceased is buried is measured by the grave people. Dig up the soil on the four sides and put it on the outside of the four sides, and then continue to dig the soil in the center and place it on the south side of the center. After the ritual of weeping, the mourner and all the masters came to the place of burial, and stood on the south side of the earth that had been dug up, and took away the scarfs and the loins. The ruler who preaches the master's commands to the mourners is at the right hand of the mourner. The person who took out the tube of yarrow (shī) to the east, held it in his hand with the yarrow, and faced south to receive the order of the mourner.
