I broke down der door mit my shoulder, und der thatch of der roof was torn into a great hole, und der sun came in upon der floor. It took a long while, for the thatch was thick, but at last I was nearly through it. Wine that recalls the glow of spring, Upon the thatch a sudden shower, A gentle scholar in the bower, Where tall bamboos their shadows fling, White clouds in heavens newly clear, And wandering wings through depths of trees, Then pillowed in green shade, he sees A torrent foaming to the mere; Around his dreams the dead leaves fall; Calm as the starred chrysanthemum, He notes the season glories come, And reads the books that never pall. |
