Yilin Verse
執斧破薪,使媒求婦。好合二姓,親御斯須。色比毛嬙,姑悅公喜。
Taking up axe to split firewood, sending a matchmaker to seek a bride. The two surnames join in harmony; the groom attends her for a moment. Her beauty rivals Mao Qiang; mother-in-law is pleased, father-in-law delighted.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
