Yilin Verse

春多膏澤,夏潤優渥。稼穡成熟,畝獲百斛。師行失律,霸功不遂。

Spring abounds in rich rain; summer's moisture is generous. Crops ripen to harvest, each acre yielding a hundred bushels. The army marches without discipline; the hegemon's work goes unfinished.

— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
