Going Late out the Left Palace Gate
The daylight hours are called out but faintly,
spring banners, massed guards in even lines.
Withdrawing from dawn court, we disperse[1] under flowers,
we stray beside the willows on our way to our compounds.
Snow on towers grows wet, melting and soaking the walls.
clouds in the palace are low, leaving the great halls.
Avoiding others, I burn the draft of a remonstrance[2],
and ride my horse when the chickens are ready to roost.
