“You’ve shut your door and studied books
for many months and years:
You’ve planted pine trees – all now grown
into old dragon scales.”
— Wang Wei (699-759), translated by Jonathan Chaves in Out of Character: Decoding Chinese Calligraphy. See this poem in semicursive script calligraphy by Zhang Ruitu (1570-1641) here.
