Confucius - Celebrating The Opulence Of The Lords Of Ts`inConfucius - Celebrating The Opulence Of The Lords Of Ts`in
Work rating: Low


Our ruler to the hunt proceeds;   And black as iron are his steeds   That heed the charioteer`s command,   Who holds the six reins in his hand.   His favorites follow to the chase,   Rejoicing in his special grace.   The season`s males, alarmed, arise--   The season`s males, of wondrous size.   Driven by the beaters, forth they spring,   Soon caught within the hunters` ring.   "Drive on their left," the ruler cries;   And to its mark his arrow flies.   The hunting done, northward he goes;   And in the park the driver shows   The horses` points, and his own skill   That rules and guides them at his will.   Light cars whose teams small bells display,   The long-and short-mouthed dogs convey.
