Yilin Verse
水長無船，破城壞堤；大夫從役，困于泥塗。一朝喪殞，不見少妻。
Waters rise and there is no boat; the city walls breach, the levees break. The officer goes to serve on campaign, mired in mud. In a single morning he perishes -- never again to see his young wife.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
