T'ai-po / 1

子曰，泰伯其可谓至德也已矣，三以天下让，民无得而称焉。

Modern Chinese Guide

孔子说：泰伯可以说是道德最高尚的人了，他多次把天下让给别人，百姓简直找不到恰当的话来称赞他。

James Legge Translation

The Master said, "T'ai-po may be said to have reached the highest point of virtuous action. Thrice he declined the kingdom, and the people in ignorance of his motives could not express their approbation of his conduct."
