References

page 1068 note 1 Dr. Creel does, in the case of the “ Pan Kêng ”, adduce a too free and elaborate use of the character; , but while his observations upon the use of this character are just, he neglects to consider that the liberal sprinkling of an obscure text with this maid-of-all-work is the simplest way of clarifying it. It was, I presume, this reflection which led Professor Ku Chieh-kang to revise an earlier judgment and to believe the text in its present form to be a revision of an earlier version (Studies, pp. 68–9).
