Excerpt from The I-Li, Vol. 1: Or Book of Etiquette and Ceremonial It is not necessary to make a list of those whose labours on the Chinese language and literature lays every student under a great debt of obligation. Some of them, such as Professors De Groot, Giles, and Parker, are still in active service. I have paid them the highest tribute within my power by making a use of their works, which is, I hope, not unworthy. I wish to acknowledge the help received from my colleague, A. W.
