Yilin Verse
太王為父，季歷孝友。文武聖明，仁德興起。弘張四國，載福綏厚。
The Great King was father; Jili was filial and fraternal. Wen and Wu were sagely and bright; benevolence and virtue arose. They spread their domain across four kingdoms, bearing blessings thick and enduring.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
