Yilin Verse
天女踞床，不成文章。南箕无舌，飯多砂糠。虛象盜名，雌雄折頸。
The celestial Weaving Maid sits at her loom but produces no pattern; the Southern Winnow has no tongue; rice is full of sand and chaff; empty images steal their names; the paired birds break their necks.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
