Yilin Verse

亂君之門,佐鬭傷跟,營私貪祿,身為悔殘,東下泰山,見我所歡。

At the disordered lord's gate; joining the fray, heels are wounded. Scheming for private gain and salary; the body is left in regret and ruin. Descending east from Mount Tai; there I see my beloved.

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