Yilin Verse
白鵠衘珠，夜食為明。膏潤渥優，國歲年豐。中子來同，見惡不凶。
The white swan holds a pearl in its beak; by night it feeds and gives off light. Its rich moisture is bountiful and fine; the year's harvest is plentiful. The middle son arrives in harmony; seeing ill, he meets no misfortune.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
