轻者三日而死。重者寅时死矣。
一、釜沸脉的形态，如同汤水沸腾涌起。手指在脉位上寻按，感觉中央隆起而四周倾流，脉搏有进有退，完全没有节律。只见到它像火一样从阳面流出。
二、鱼翔脉的形态，宛如鱼在水面游动，只是尾巴摆动而身体和头部都不动。其脉浮在皮肤表面，不进不退，手指寻按之下……（原文此处残缺）……可知病情……日中时发病则夜半死，夜半时发病则日中死。
三、弹石脉的形态坚硬而急促，来势迟缓去势迅速。手指寻按至搏动处突然断绝，比喻如同手指弹击石头，辟辟然坚硬而不可入内。（《素问》云……脉独见……）
四、解索脉的形态，手指下感觉散乱无章，呼吸节律没有准则。或聚或散，如同绳索解开，而没有收敛约束。这是由于肾与命门之气……（原文此处残缺）……包藏……实证……形于外……
五、屋漏脉的形态，如同屋顶漏水，滴滴答答不相连续。有时来有时止，时而跳动时而恢复。诊察它也如此。称之为虚屋漏脉。
六、虾游脉的形态，手指寻按时，若虾在水面游动，不进不退，忽然惊跳而去，缓缓寻找时，杳然不见，片刻之后又在指下隐隐而来。诊脉时不动，忽然又离去。脉的异常状态，间或有完全类似这种情况的，所以称它为虾游脉。
七、雀啄脉的形态，来势急数，频繁中断而停止，很久以前再复来，若麻雀啄食的样子。大概是来三次而去四次。
八、偃刀脉的形态，寻按时如同抚摸刀刃，责责然没有进退，其速率没有准则，所以叫偃刀脉。这是由于心元血枯，真火的征象，无处归宿，而胃气独存，不能相互引导接续。这是损伤了真心所致。心主血，肺主气……（原文此处残缺）……而死。
九、转豆脉的形态，脉来应指，浑然如豆子旋转展转，不进不退，完全没有节律。所以称为转豆脉。
十、麻促脉的形态，应指如麻子般短促，散乱分杂，完全没有调和之意。大概麻的生长，其征兆不一。轻者三日而死，重者寅时死矣。
1. The appearance of the Fu Fei (Cauldron Boiling) pulse is like boiling soup surging up. When seeking and pressing with the fingers, it feels as if the center rises while the periphery flows outward. There is advancement and retreat, but absolutely no rhythmic interval. It is seen merely as fire flowing from Yang.
2. The appearance of the Yu Xiang (Fish Swimming) pulse resembles a fish swimming on the water surface; only the tail wags while the body and head remain motionless. The pulse floats on the skin, neither advancing nor retreating. Under the fingers... [text missing] ...one can know the disease's status. If occurring at midday, death occurs at midnight; if occurring at midnight, death occurs at midday.
3. The appearance of the Dan Shi (Finger Flicking Stone) pulse is firm and rapid, coming slowly and departing quickly. Seeking it under the fingers, it reaches a beat and then abruptly ceases, metaphorically like a finger flicking a stone, sounding "pi pi" hard and unyielding. As stated in Su Wen... [text missing] ...when the pulse appears alone...
4. The appearance of the Jie Suo (Untying Rope) pulse feels scattered and chaotic under the fingers, with no standard respiratory rhythm. It gathers or scatters, like an untied rope without any constraint. This arises because the Qi of the Kidney and Ming Men (Gate of Vitality)... [text missing] ...enclosing... Excess patterns... manifest externally...
5. The appearance of the Wu Lou (House Leaking) pulse is like water leaking from a roof, dripping continuously yet disconnected. It comes and stops intermittently, moving and resting alternately. Its diagnosis is similar to this. It is called the Xu Wu Lou (Deficient House Leaking) pulse.
6. The appearance of the Xia You (Shrimp Swimming) pulse, when sought under the fingers, resembles a shrimp swimming on the water surface, neither advancing nor retreating. Suddenly it startles and departs; searching gently, it vanishes completely. After a moment, it faintly reappears under the fingers. During examination, it remains still, then suddenly leaves. Among the abnormal states of pulses, some are entirely similar to this, hence named Xia You (Shrimp Swimming).
7. The appearance of the Que Zhuo (Sparrow Pecking) pulse comes rapidly and frequently, interrupting and stopping often, returning after a long pause, resembling the manner of a sparrow pecking for food. It generally comes three times and goes four times.
8. The appearance of the Yan Dao (Reclining Knife) pulse feels like tracing the edge of a knife under the fingers, sounding "ze ze" with no advance or retreat, and its rate is irregular, thus named Yan Dao (Reclining Knife). This is due to the depletion of Heart Yuan Blood, where the image of True Fire has no place to reside, while Stomach Qi stands alone, unable to guide and connect mutually. Such is the injury to the True Heart. The Heart governs Blood, and the Lung governs Qi... [text missing] ...leading to death.
9. The appearance of the Zhuan Dou (Rotating Bean) pulse responds to the finger,浑然 (hunran - naturally/wholly) like a bean rotating and turning, neither advancing nor retreating, with absolutely no rhythmic interval. Hence it is called Zhuan Dou (Rotating Bean).
10. The appearance of the Ma Cu (Hemp Urgent) pulse responds to the finger like hemp seeds being short and urgent, scattered and mixed, lacking any sense of harmony. Generally, the signs of hemp growth vary. In mild cases, death occurs within three days; in severe cases, death occurs during the Yin hour.
