Yilin Verse
秋花冬萼,數被嚴霜;甲兵當庭,萬物不生;雄犬夜鳴,民擾大驚。
Autumn flowers and winter buds, struck again and again by harsh frost. Armored soldiers fill the courtyard; the myriad things do not grow. The male dog howls at night; the people are troubled and greatly alarmed.
— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
