To whom, then, will he sell his wine?
DRINKING IN THE T'AO PAVILION
BY LI T'AI-PO
The house of the lonely scholar is in the winding lane.
The great scholar's gate is very high.
The garden pool lies and shines like the magic gall mirror;
Groves of trees throw up flowers with wide, open faces;
The leaf-coloured water draws the Spring sun.
