The Qin and Wei, |
|
Now present their broad sheets of water. |
|
Ladies and gentlemen, |
|
Are carrying flowers of valerian. |
|
A lady says, ' Have you been to see? ' |
|
A gentleman replies, ' I have been. ' |
|
' But let us go again to see. |
|
Beyond the Wei, |
|
The ground is large and fit for pleasure. ' |
|
So the gentlemen and ladies. |
|
Make sport together, |
|
Presenting one another with small peonies. |
