The Book of Poetry · 1 passage
VII The Fang Yu Ch‘iao Ch‘ao; allusive. A lady laments the alienation of her lover by means of evil tongues. 1The magpies’ nests are on the bank; On heights the lovely pea grows rank; p. 156 While withered my heart is and blank. Who wiled my love away? 2The temple path its fine tiles shows; On heights the ribbon plant bright grows; While my breast heaves with sorrow's throes. Who led his heart astray?
