ON MA-WÊI SLOPE
When the Emperor came back from his ride, they had murdered Lady Yang—
That passion unforgettable through all the suns and moons.
They had led him to forsake her by reminding him
Of an emperor slain with his lady once, in a well at Ching-yang Palace.
That passion unforgettable through all the suns and moons.
They had led him to forsake her by reminding him
Of an emperor slain with his lady once, in a well at Ching-yang Palace.
