Yilin Verse
山險難升,澗中多石;車馳轊擊,重傷載軸;擔負善躓,跌踒右足。
The mountain is steep and hard to climb; the ravine is strewn with stones. The carriage races, axle-caps clashing; the axle suffers heavy damage. The bearer stumbles easily; spraining and twisting the right foot.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
