Yilin Verse
牽尾不前,逆理失臣。惠朔以奔。
The plow-ox won't budge, the whip is broken. The cart sinks in deep ruts — pushing is useless. The loyal minister remonstrates bitterly but the lord won't listen — removing his seal, hanging up his cap, he leaves the city by night.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
