Mencius - Book 5, Part 1, Chapter 4C

'If we simply take single sentences, there is that in the ode called "The Milky Way,"
Of the black-haired people of the remnant of Châu,
There is not half a one left."
'If it had been really as thus expressed, then not an individual of the people of Châu was left.
