我如良医,
知病说药,
服与不服,
非医咎也。

I [am] like [a] good doctor, [who] knows [your] sicknesses [and] spoke [of their] medicines, [while] taking and not taking [them, is] not [with the] doctor to blame.

又如善导,
导人善道,
闻之不行,
非导过也。

Also like [a] good guide, [who] guides people [to] good paths, [having] heard [of] them, [yet] not walking [them, is] not [the] guide’s fault.
