IX. Wei Yang

IX

The Wei Yang; narrative. The feelings with which Duke K‘ang of Ch‘in escorted his uncle, Duke Wên, to Chin, and his parting gifts.

1I escorted my uncle to Chin,
Till the Wei we crossed on the way.
Then I gave as I left
For his carriage a gift
Four steeds, and each steed was a bay. p. 150

2I escorted my uncle to Chin,
And I thought of him much in my heart.
Pendant stones, and with them
Of fine jasper a gem,
I gave, and then saw him depart.
