Visiting the Mountain Grove of General He in the Company of Instructor Zheng
III
“Rong Prince” from ten thousand leagues,
when did it leave the Yuezhi?
This strange flower blooms in remote lands,
lush creepers make the circuit of the clear pond.
The Han envoy reached there for nothing,
Shennong never knew of it.
Dew-toppled and rain-beaten,
it splits open and gradually looks bedraggled[1].
