Yilin Verse
彭名為妖,暴龍作災。盜堯衣裳,聚跖荷兵。青禽照夜,三旦夷亡。
Peng Ming becomes a monster; the violent dragon brings disaster. Stealing Yao's robes, gathering Zhi's brigands in arms. The blue bird shines through the night; by the third dawn, the rebels are destroyed.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
