Taking refuge here – in the crags and caves,

10I long constantly – for remote tranquillity.

I sigh for all my cares – for him who is blinded and baffled,

though I exert my will – I attain no prominence.

He has discarded – the Jade Dipper,

14rejected and lost all sight of – its handle and pivot.

My heart – is inflamed and infuriated,

it is only because of this – that I am anxious.

17Ahead of him he detests – Qiu and Xun,

18behind him looks down on – Peng and Wu.

I should imitate these – two sets of tracks,

20but I know not where – to lodge myself.
