In the North Courtyard of Yu Prison[1], there is an earthen chamber, which is eight feet wide and four feet deep[2]. The single door is low and small[3], and the white room is short and narrow[4]. It is dirty. Down and dark[5]. On this summer day, all kinds of qi are in full bloom[6]: four episodes of rain[7], a few floating beds, then it is water vapor; half a day of mud coating[8], steaming and drenching waves[9], then it is water vapor. It is rustic; when it is sunny and hot[10], and the wind channels are blocked[11], it is the weather of the sun; when the eaves are dark and scorched[12], it promotes the inflammation[13], and it is the weather of fire; when it is rotten in the warehouse[14] ], Chen Chen is forcing people [15], when it is the rice energy; when the shoulders are mixed and mixed [16], when there is fishy dirt (17), it is the popularity; or when it is mixed [18], or when the corpse is destroyed [19], or Rotting rat, when the evil qi comes out, it becomes foul qi[20], when stacked, there are several qi[21], when it invades and penetrates[22], it rarely becomes severe[23]. But he was weak[24] and looked down upon him[25]. He has been here for two years[26] and is fine[27]. This is because he has been nourished[28]. However, you also know what you are nourishing[29]? Mencius said[30]: "I am good at cultivating my awe-inspiring Qi[31]." There are seven Qi, but I have one Qi. One can fight against seven, so why should I worry about it[32] ]. What is so great is the righteousness of heaven and earth. Compose a song called "Song of Righteousness". Heaven and earth have righteousness, and are mixed and endowed with manifolds [33]. Below are the rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars [34]; in human terms, the sun is "awesome", overwhelming and filling the sky [35]. The imperial road should be Qing Yi [36], Hanhe Tu Mingting [37]. It will be seen when the time is poor [38]. One by one, he painted pictures [39]: in Qi Taishi Jian [40], in Jin Dong Hubi [41], in Qin Zhang Liangzhi [42], in Han Su Wujie [43]; as the head of General Yan [44]. They are Ji Shizhongxue [45], Zhang Suiyang Teeth [46], Yan Changshan Tongue [47]; or Liaodong Mao [48], Qing Cao Li Bingxue [49]; or Chushi Biao [50]. Ghosts and gods cry heroically [51]; or for crossing the river [52], generously swallowing Hu Jie [53]; or for attacking the thief's wat [54], the head is turned upside down and broken [55]. It is the majesty of Qi [56]. The fierceness will last forever[57]. When it penetrates the sun and moon, life and death will be settled [58]! The earth depends on it, and the sky pillar depends on it [59]. The three cardinal principles [60] are the root of morality [61]. Alas for Tuanyangjiu[62], Li is also really weak[63]. The prisoner of Chu wore a tassel on his crown [64] and sent a chariot to Qiongbei [65]. The tripod wok is as sweet as glutinous rice [66] and cannot be obtained. There are ghosts in the underworld [67], and it is dark in the spring courtyard [68]. Oxen and oxen eat the same soap, chickens and phoenixes eat [69]. Once there is fog and dew [70], it will become barren in the ditch [71]. In this way, no matter how cold or hot it is [72], everything will change by itself [73]. Alas, Ju'anchang [74], for my peaceful country. How can he be so clever? Yin and Yang cannot be thieved [75]? Looking at this stubbornness [76], looking up at the floating clouds [77]. My heart is sad for a long time, the sky has its extremes [78]! Philosophers are far away [79], and their models are in the past [80]. The wind eaves display books for reading [81], and the ancient roads illuminate their colors [82].

Translation:

The righteousness between heaven and earth gives form to the rivers and rivers on the earth. The mountains, the sun, the moon and the stars in the sky are full of righteousness.

They show their integrity in the face of national disasters and will be remembered in history forever. , Cui Zhu's regicide is recorded in the history books; Dong Hu of the Jin Dynasty has a good history, holding the "calligraphy is not hidden" pen; Zhang Liangxue of South Korea is a national humiliation, and the Qin Emperor was killed by Tongji; Su Wu stayed in Hu for nineteen years, holding the Han Dynasty Festival all day long; Ba The prefect of the county, Lao Yan Yan, was willing to behead his head without compromising; the Jin Dynasty servant named Ji Shao worked hard to save the country; Zhang Xun guarded Juyang when he was guarding Juyang, and gritted his teeth against the rebels; the prefect of Changshan, Yan Gaoqing, scolded the enemy and cut off three inches of his life. Tongue; Guan Ning of Liaodong "wears a soap hat", as pure and self-motivated as ice and snow; Zhuge returned to the Han Dynasty in "Le Shi", dedicated his life to the Han Dynasty, how heroic!

The prison is dead and there are ghost fires. When spring comes, the old ox and the horse are fed in the trough. Poison cannot harm me. The prison is a dark and sad place. How can I have wisdom and cleverness to prevent evil and poison from harming my body? Although the sages are far away, their examples make my heart stronger.
