Yilin Verse
黍稷醇醲,敬奉山宗。神嗜飲食,甘雨嘉降。庶物蕃廡,時无災咎。
Millet and grain, rich and pure, reverently offered to the mountain ancestor. The spirits savor the food and drink; sweet rain descends in blessing. All living things flourish abundantly; the season is free from calamity.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
