35 Seeing Off Zheng Qian (18) Who Has Been Banished to the Post of Revenue Manager in Taizhou.
I Feel Bad That, Nearing Old Age, This Has Happened Because He Fell into the Hands of the Rebels.
I Failed to be Able to Part Face to Face, But My Feelings Are Revealed in the Poem Master Zheng, useless chu tree, his locks turned to white silk,1 after drinking he always claims that he is an old painter.
Ten thousand leagues, it pains my heart, this day of stern banishment, 4 approaching death in our hundred-year span, at the time of the Restoration.
In confused haste he has gone to set off on that long journey, unexpectedly it happened that I was too late for your parting feast.
Even if with you, sir, this parting is forever, 8 below on the roads of the Nine Springs we will always have times to share friendship.
Du Fu?

Subduing the color of snow the yellow daylily returns, 4 in the light of spring leaking through there are fronds of willows. To have ale as I please I will plan a good night to get drunk, I return home, having just concluded dawn court at Zichen Palace. a chap-balm for lips and face cream came with imperial grace, 8 in an azure tube and silver ewer descending from the nine-tiered heavens. 1 In ?
