Yilin Verse
鸑鳴岐山，龜應幽淵。男女媾精，萬物化生。文王以成，為周開庭。
The luan sings on Mount Qi; the tortoise answers from the hidden deep. Male and female join essence; the ten thousand things come into being. King Wen accomplished this, founding the court of Zhou.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
