Yilin Verse

水流趍下,欲至東海。求我所有,買魴與鯉。

Merchant boats ride the wind through the gorge mouth; sails round as the moon reflect on green water. Along the shore, a thousand fishing lanterns shine — baskets brim with fish and shrimp, laughter is thick.

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