Rubbing of bronze script engraved on the Song ding (颂鼎).^[1]

The text records the appointment of a man named Song (颂) as supervisor of the storehouses in Chengzhou, and is repeated on at least 3 tripod pots (鼎 dǐng), 5 tureens (簋 guǐ) and their lids, and 2 vases (壺 hú) and their lids.^[2] The text is (with added punctuation):

隹三年五月既死霸，甲戌，
王在周康卲宮，旦，王格大
室，即立。宰弘右頌入門，立
中廷。尹氏受王命書。王呼
史虢生冊命頌。王曰：『頌，令
汝官司成周貯廿家，監司
新造貯，用宮御。錫汝玄衣
黻純，赤巿、朱璜、鑾旂、攸勒
用事。』頌拜稽首，受命冊，佩
以出。返入覲璋。頌敢對揚
天子丕顯魯休，用作朕皇
考龔叔、皇母龔姒寶尊鼎，
用追孝祈介康□、純右、通
祿永令，頌其萬年眉壽，
畋臣天子，靈終，子子孫孫寶用。

The original text indicates repetition of the characters 子 and 孫 in the last line using iteration marks. The text is dated the 5th month of the 3rd year of an unnamed king. Shaughnessy identifies the king as Xuan, implying a year of 825 BC.^[3]

The image is copied from an old Chinese book published before the Chinese copyright law was set up.
