of zhi ( 致 ), while qi ( 其 )refers to tian ( 天 )and zhong ( 衷 )should be written as zhong ( 中 )with

his heart, which means the supreme God sends his message. Yi you qi zhong ( 以 诱 其 衷 ) means to

the meaning of tian she qi zhong ( 天舍其衷 ) and jiang tian zhong ( 降其衷 ) in the Discourses of the
States, Discourses of Wu. (《国语 · 吴语》)
