 128. PARTING WITH LI PO ON THE TUNG-TING LAKE

��J^~A

��To-day at the time of falling leaves we meet only to part

- *Z On the autumn waters of the Tung-ting, that stretch afar
 * — J£^ to the horizon.

Jjr And while talking together of our good old time at the _^4-» metropolis of gold,

^J We turn to the northern sky and gaze at the stars of the «-»-f* Ursa Major, our eyes filled with tears.

__^ Chia Chi.
