Yilin Verse
山險難登，澗中多石，車馳轊擊，載重傷軸。儋負善躓，跌踒右足。
The mountain is steep, hard to climb; the ravine is full of stones. The cart races, hub strikes; bearing heavy loads, the axle breaks. Carrying burdens, one is apt to stumble; the right foot twists and falls.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
