Yilin Verse
田鼠野雞，意常欲逃。拘制籠檻，不得動搖。
An iron cage locks the eagle whose wings are already broken; a stone cell holds a tiger whose claws are worn flat. Day and night watching a thin line of light through the window — the word "freedom" weighs a thousand jin.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
