Yilin Verse
金城銕郭,上下同力。政平民親,寇不敢賊。
Bronze walls and iron battlements, solid as a mountain. The garrison patrols through the night without sleep. The people dwell in peace — cooking smoke rises. The four gates stand open, never needing to close.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
