Yilin Verse

天馬五道,炎火分處。往來上下,住又駒亡。衣柔巾麻,相隨哭歌,凶惡如何?

Celestial horses on five roads, flames dividing their paths. Going up and coming down, the colt is lost in transit. Wearing soft cloth and hemp kerchief, weeping and singing follow each other — how dire is this evil?

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