Yilin Verse
驕胡犬形，造惡作凶。无所能成，還自滅身。
Fierce flames burn the forest — the fire scorches itself. The venomous snake bites its own tail — the tail chars first. Forging a sword to harm all travelers — the blade snaps back and pierces his own waist.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
