問曰：脉有陰陽者，何謂也？答曰：凡脉大、浮、數、動、滑，此名陽也；脉沉、濇、弱、弦、微，此名陰也。凡陰病見陽脉者生，陽病見陰脉者死。
问曰：脉有阴阳者，何谓也？答曰：凡脉大、浮、数、动、滑，此名阳也；脉沉、涩、弱、弦、微，此名阴也。凡阴病见阳脉者生，阳病见阴脉者死。

The Master asked: “The pulse has yin and yang — what does that mean?” The answer: “When the pulse is large, floating, rapid, moving or slippery, it is named yang; when it is deep, astringent, weak, wiry or faint, it is named yin. In yin disease, seeing a yang pulse, the patient lives; in yang disease, seeing a yin pulse, the patient dies.”

問曰：翕奄沉，名曰滑，何謂也？沉爲純陰，翕爲正陽，陰陽和合，故令脉滑，關尺自平。陽明脉微沉，食飲自可。少陰脉微滑，滑者，緊之浮名也，此爲陰實，其人必股内汗出，陰下濕也。

Asked: “Closing down and sinking is named slippery — what does that mean? The sinking is pure yin, the closing is true yang; yin and yang are in harmony, and so the pulse is slippery, and the gate and cubit are of themselves level. When the yang brightness pulse is slightly deep, eating and drinking go on as usual. When the lesser yin pulse is slightly slippery — the slippery being the floating name of the tight — this is yin repletion; the person will surely sweat on the inner thighs and be damp below the genitals.”
滑之本義在「翕奄沉」一句：非熱非實，乃陰陽和合之象；其為實、為噦，皆就其偏者言之。
脉浮而滑，浮爲陽，滑爲實，陽實相搏，其脉數疾，衛氣失度。浮滑之脉數疾，發熱汗出者，此爲不治。
脉浮而滑，浮为阳，滑为实，阳实相搏，其脉数疾，卫气失度。浮滑之脉数疾，发热汗出者，此为不治。

A floating, slippery pulse: floating is yang, slippery is excess; yang and excess striking together make the pulse rapid and swift, and the wei qi loses its measure. A floating, slippery pulse that is rapid and swift, with fever and sweating, is untreatable.

趺陽脉滑而緊，滑者胃氣實，緊者脾氣強，持實擊強，痛還自傷，以手把刃，坐作瘡也。

When the instep yang pulse is slippery and tight: the slippery means the stomach qi is replete, the tight means the spleen qi is strong. Pitting the replete against the strong, the pain turns back and injures oneself — like taking a blade in the hand and so bringing a wound upon oneself.
