焦氏易林

履虵躡虺,與鬼相視,驚哭失氣,如騎虎尾。

Treading on serpents, stepping on vipers; locking eyes with a ghost. Crying out in shock, losing one's breath -- like riding a tiger's tail.

— 焦延寿《焦氏易林》,公元前一世纪

注释

水洊至,坎險重疊,步步踏於毒蛇之上。履蛇躡虺,與鬼對視,驚哭失氣,如騎虎尾——險象環生,恐懼層疊。足下是蛇,眼前是鬼,身下是不可控之猛虎。從坎至觀(風行地上),風行大地之上,廣闊之視野消解近身之驚惶。先王省方觀民設教,正為避免沉溺於局中之盲目。此詩寫無觀照高度時之處境——困於地面,每一影子皆化為鬼魅,唯登高方能脫恐。
