宋琬·《狱中八咏·芦席片》

愁心不可卷,假寐聊相资。

莫厌籧篨贱,犹能出范雎。

Songs Composed in Prison I

A Piece of Rush Matting

Sung Wan

A grieving heart can't be rolled up like a mat;

This mat is good enough for a brief nap.

Don't be disgusted because it is cheap,

For it could still produce a Fan Sui.(1)

(1). Fan Sui (fl. 3rrd century B.C.) rose to high office in the state of Ch'in after he had been beaten and thrown into a toilet when taken for dead.

(William Schultz 译)
