 Poem Composed at Imperial Command First turning to the Peng-lai Garden, Where cranes are seen gracefully dancing, Then, returning to the garden of Yi-shih, Where the first songs of nightingales are heard— They sing high among the trees, Desiring to mingle their notes with the mouth-organs, And join the imperial concert of the phoenix- flutes.

Hao-king is an old name for Chang-an, the capital. [35]
