燔
* to burn
    From: Han Feizi, circa 2nd century BCE
    Shāngjūn jiāo Qín Xiàogōng yǐ lián shíwǔ, shè gàozuò zhī guò, fán “Shī” “Shū” ér míng fǎlìng, sè sīmén zhī qǐng ér suì gōngjiā zhī láo, jìn yóuhuàn zhī mín ér xiǎn gēngzhàn zhī shì. [Pinyin]
    Lord Shang taught Duke Xiao of Qin to organize groups of ten and five families, and establish the system of denunciation of crime and joint responsibility for offence, to burn the Books of Poetry and Documents and thereby make laws and orders clear, to bar the requests of private families and thereby encourage services to public offices, to prohibit idlers from purchasing official posts, and to celebrate farmers and warriors.
    From: Huainanzi, 2nd century BCE
    Yīn Zhòu fán shēngrén, gū jiàn zhě, wéi páoluò, zhù jīn zhù, pōu xiánrén zhī xīn, xī cáishì zhī jìng, hǎi Guǐhóu zhī nǚ. [Pinyin]
    King Zhou of Shang burnt people alive, those who dared remonstrate dissected; the stake was invented, bronze pillar cast; hearts of the able and virtuous gouged out, feet of the talented were cut apart, and Marquis Gui's daughter turned into meat pie.
    From: c. 282, Xun Xu, preface to The Travels of Mu, Son of Heaven
    Àn “Shǐjì•Liùguó Niánbiǎo”, zì jīnwáng èrshíyī nián zhì Qín Shǐhuáng sānshísì nián fán shū zhī suì, bāshíliù nián. Jízhì Tàikāng èr nián chū dé cǐ shū, fán wǔbǎiqīshíjiǔ nián. [Pinyin]
    According to The Records of the Grand Historian, Volume XV, from the 21st year of “the current king”, i.e. King Xiang of Wei's reign to the 34th year of Emperor Shihuang of Qin's reign, the year when books were burnt, there are 86 years. By the 2nd year of Taikang era (281 CE) a total of 579 years had elapsed before the rediscovery of this text.
