The foot yangming that runs beside the nose into the face is named Xuanlu; it belongs to the mouth and runs opposite to bind the root of the eye. Look for what is excessive and take it, reducing the surplus and increasing the deficient — do the reverse and the disease grows worse. The foot taiyang that pierces the nape and enters the brain properly binds the root of the eye and is named the eye system; for pain of head and eye take it, between the two sinews in the nape, where it divides after entering the brain. Yin qiao and yang qiao cross: yang enters yin, yin leaves yang, and they meet at the sharp canthus. When yang qi is full the eyes stare; when yin qi is full the eyes close.

For heat jue take foot taiyin and shaoyang, retaining the needles. For cold jue take foot yangming and shaoyin on the foot, retaining them. For a slack tongue with drivelling saliva and vexation, take foot shaoyin. For shivering chills, a chattering jaw, no sweat, abdominal distension and vexation, take hand taiyin. To needle the deficient, needle where the qi has departed; to needle the replete, needle where the qi is arriving.

身有五部：伏兔一；腓二，腓者，腨也；背三；五藏之腧四；項五。此五部有癰疽者死。
身有五部：伏兔一；腓二，腓者，腨也；背三；五藏之腧四；项五。此五部有痈疽者死。 shēn yǒu wǔ bù: fú tù yī; féi èr, féi zhě, shuàn yě; bèi sān; wǔ zàng zhī shù sì; xiàng wǔ. cǐ wǔ bù yǒu yōng jū zhě sǐ.
身体有五个重要部位：伏兔是第一，腓肠是第二，腓就是腨，背部是第三，五脏的腧穴是第四，项部是第五。这五个部位生了痈疽的，死。
The body has five parts: the squatting rabbit is one; the calf is two — the calf is the shank; the back is three; the transports of the five viscera are four; the nape is five. Boils and abscesses in these five parts are fatal.
bìng shǐ shǒu bì zhě, xiān qǔ shǒu yáng míng, tài yīn ér hàn chū; bìng shǐ tóu shǒu zhě, xiān qǔ xiàng tài yáng ér hàn chū; bìng shǐ zú jìng zhě, xiān qǔ zú yáng míng ér hàn chū. bì tài yīn kě hàn chū, zú yáng míng kě hàn chū, gù qǔ yīn ér hàn chū shèn zhě, zhǐ zhī yú yáng; qǔ yáng ér hàn chū shèn zhě, zhǐ zhī yú yīn.
病从手臂开始的，先取手阳明、手太阴，使他出汗；病从头部开始的，先取项部的太阳经，使他出汗；病从足胫开始的，先取足阳明，使他出汗。臂太阴可以发汗，足阳明也可以发汗。所以取阴经而汗出太多的，从阳经上止住它；取阳经而汗出太多的，从阴经上止住它。
When disease begins in arm or hand, first take hand yangming and taiyin and sweat appears. When it begins in the head, first take the taiyang of the nape and sweat appears. When it begins in the foot and shank, first take foot yangming and sweat appears. Arm taiyin can produce sweat and foot yangming can produce sweat; so when taking yin brings excessive sweating, stop it from the yang; when taking yang brings excessive sweating, stop it from the yin.

凡刺之害，中而不去則精泄，不中而去則致氣。精泄則病甚而恇，致氣則生爲癰疽也。
凡刺之害，中而不去则精泄，不中而去则致气。精泄则病甚而恇，致气则生为痈疽也。 fán cì zhī hài, zhōng ér bù qù zé jīng xiè, bù zhōng ér qù zé zhì qì. jīng xiè zé bìng shèn ér kuāng, zhì qì zé shēng wéi yōng jū yě.
凡是针刺的害处，刺中了病而不出针，就会使精气外泄；没有刺中病而就出针，就会使邪气留聚。精气外泄，病就加重而形神怯弱；邪气留聚，就会生痈疽。
The harm in needling: to hit the disease and not withdraw the needle drains the essence; to miss and withdraw it gathers qi. When essence is drained the disease worsens and the patient cowers; when qi is gathered, boils and abscesses form.
