⑧Wuying: Nothing to seek. There are four horses painted by Han Gan: one of them is on land, with its head raised high and swaying its mane, as if it is looking at something. It stamps its feet and roars loudly; among them One horse wants to cross the river, with its haunches high and its head down. It is choosing a place to cross the river and is wandering at small steps without making it; two of them are in the water, and the horse in front is looking back, as if it is crossing. He spoke with his nose, but the horse behind him didn't respond. He seemed to want to drink water and stayed behind.

If we regard them as raised horses, they are not covered with bridles in front and whipped with whips in the back. If we regard them as horses in the wild, their eyes are angular, their ears are erect, their chests are plump, and their tails are thin, all of which meet the standards of good horses. These horses are as handsome as wise doctors or noble gentlemen. They undress, take off their hats, and come close to the water to clean their hatbands - so superb and refined. They really want to hold their heads high, look into the distance, and live a long life as friends with the elk, but they find it difficult to do so. They are so leisurely and contented that they will grow old and die without pursuing anything.
