Yilin Verse
訾娵開門，鶴鳴彈冠。文章進用，舞韶和鸞。三仁翼政，國无災殃。
At the Ziqu gate, doors flung open; the crane calls and caps are dusted. Literature and refinement are advanced and employed; the Shao dance plays in harmony with the phoenix bells. Three humane ministers guide the government; the state suffers no calamity.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
