Alas for him, so handsome and accomplished !
How grandly tall !
With what elegance in his high forehead !
With what motion of his beautiful eyes !
With what skill in the swift movements of his feet !
With what mastery of archery !
Alas for him, so famous !
His beautiful eyes how clear !
His manners how complete !
Shooting all day at the target,
And never lodging outside the bird-square !
Indeed our [ruler's] nephew !
Alas for him, so beautiful !
His bright eyes and high forehead how lovely !
His dancing so choice !
Sure to send his arrows right through !
The four all going to the same place !
One able to withstand rebellion !
Legge 106
