Yilin Verse

崔嵬北岳,天神貴客。溫仁正直,主布恩德。閔哀不已,蒙受大福。

Lofty and towering, the Northern Peak; heaven's spirits are honored guests. Warm, benevolent, upright, and just, the lord bestows grace and virtue. Grieving ceaselessly in compassion, he receives great blessing.

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