I heard my love was going to Yang-chou And went with him as far as Ch'u-shan. For a moment when you held me fast in your outstretched arms I thought the river stood still and did not flow. I have brought my pillow and am lying at the northern window, So come to me and play with me awhile. With so much quarrelling and so few kisses How long do you think our love can last? [122] THE LITTLE LADY OF CHTNG-HSI [a children's song] Her door opened on the white water Close hy the side of the timber bri...dge: That's where the little lady lived All alone without a lover. [123] PLUCKING THE RUSHES [a boy and girl are sent to gather rushes for thatching] Anon, [fourth century] Green rushes with red shoots, Long leaves bending to the wind — You and I in the same boat Plucking rushes at the Five Lakes. We started at dawn from the orchid-island: We rested under the elms till noon. You and I plucking rushes Had not plucked a handful when night came! [124] BALLAD OF THE WESTERN ISLAND IN THE NORTH COUNTRY " Seeing the plum-tree I thought of the Western Island And I plucked a branch to send to the North Country.
