Tangshi VI. 1. (176)

°ª ¾A Gao Shi
To Vice-prefects Li and Wang Degraded and Transferred to Xiazhong and Changsha

What are you thinking as we part from one another,
Pulling in our horses for the stirrup-cups?
Do these tear-streaks mean Wu Valley monkeys all weeping,
Or wildgeese returning with news from Heng Mountain?....
On the river between green maples an autumn sail grows dim,
There are only a few old trees by the wall of the White God City....
But the year is bound to freshen us with a dew of heavenly favour –
Take heart, we shall soon be together again!

Bynner 176
