Yilin Verse
重耳恭敏,遇讒出處。北奔狄戎,經涉齊楚。以秦代懷,誅殺子圉。身為霸主。
Chong'er was reverent and keen, yet met slander and was exiled. He fled north to the Di and Rong, passed through Qi and Chu. With Qin's aid he replaced Huai, and slew Ziyu. He became lord among the hegemons.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
