Analysis of At a Poetry Party I Am Given the Rhyme Chih
Li Ching Chao 1804 (Jinan, Shandong) – 1155 (Shaoxing, Zhejiang)
Although I've studied poetry for thirty years
I try to keep my mouth shut and avoid reputation.
Now who is this nosy gentleman talking about my poetry
Like Yang Ching-chih
Who spoke of Hsiang Ssu everywhere he went.
