Yilin Verse

二人為侶,俱歸北海。入門上堂,拜謁王母。勞賜我酒,女功悅喜。

Two companions journey together, both returning to the northern sea. Entering the gate and ascending the hall, they pay respects to the Queen Mother. She graciously bestows wine upon them; the maidservant delights with joy.

— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
