Yilin Verse
雨師娶婦，黃岩季子。成禮既婚，相呼面南。膏澤應時，年豐大喜。
The Rain Master takes a bride, the youngest daughter of Huangyan. Rites completed, the marriage made; they face each other, turning south. Timely rain and rich moisture; a bountiful year, great rejoicing.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
