THE POEMS OF COLD MOUNTAIN: 112 by HAN SHAN

First Line: THERE IS NO LIMIT TO CHANGES
Last Line: THIS TIME THROUGH A POOR CLERK
Subject(s): CHANGE; CHINESE LITERATURE;
There is no limit to changes
births and deaths never cease
a bird body on a lesser path
a dragon-fish on a great peak
in a chaotic world a mountain sheep
in peaceful times a fine horse
last time around a rich man
this time through a poor clerk
