...owl, and wagtail

and huo3-hu2, the fire-fox

Amrta, that is nectar

white wind, white dew

Here from the begining, we have been here

from the begining

From her breath were the goddesses

2La 2mun 3mi

if we did not perform 2Ndaw 1bpo

nothing is solid

without 2Muan 1bpo

no reality

Agility, that is from the juniper,

rice grows and the land is invisible

By the pomegranate water,

in the clear air

Over Li Chiang

The firm voice amid pine wood,

many springs are at the foot of

Hsiang Shan

By the temple pool, Lung Wang’s

the clear discourse

as Jade stream

Yu4

ho2

Artemisia
Arundinaria
Winnowed in fate’s tray

neath
