Yilin Verse
望幸不到,文章未就;王子逐走,馬騎啣傷;昳跡不得,曷其有常。
Hoping for the royal visit, but it does not come; the writings remain unfinished. The prince is driven to flee; horse and rider wounded by the bit. Tracks erased, nothing gained -- how can there be constancy?
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
