San Zi Jing - The Three Character Classic

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_zi_jing

The poem consists of a series of couplets of three characters. The complete text is less than 1200 characters, but in that limited space it manages to enumerate all of the salient features of the Confucian tradition. Children were required to memorize it even before they could read and write. Written in the thirteenth century and usually attributed to Wang Yinglin (1223-1296), a renowned Confucian scholar, during the Song Dynasty.
