What is written: 纨扇赋 炎暑时至，阳鸟怒飞。金石为流，白汗沾衣。侯吹纤条，延爽南扉。玉枕徒设，桃笙安施？彷徨踯躅，不知所为。于是裂轻纨兮似雪，制团扇兮如月。光摇怀袖，凉生毛发。起遐想于青蘋，引清飔于天未。萧然襟带，凄其絺葛。醒人肌骨，袢歊如脱。须臾或离，中肠为热。殆造物者欲解民之愠，假人力以为之。不然，岂天时之可夺也。复有题诗欣赏，因书奇绝。障轻尘以寄恨，扬仁风而言别。或画乘鸾之女，或误成蝇之笔。白羽褵褷而自愧，蒲葵比方而知劣。及乎商气应，厥民夷，玉露降兮百草，金风生兮桂枝。罗衣重拂，秋兰复菲。孤萤冷照，寒螀暗啼。弃捐箧笥，绸缪网丝。班姬形中道之怨，江淹赋零落之诗。嗟夫！用舍有时，出处有宜。惟人亦尔，于物奚疑！彼狐貉之御冬，岂当署而亦悲！苟行藏之任道，愿俟时乎安之。噫，圣贤其不可见兮，之二人又何知！ The sweltering heat arrives, and the sunbirds fly angrily. Fluids flow like metal and stone, and white sweat soaks clothes. A gentle breeze blows through the southern gate, bringing coolness. Jade pillows are useless, and peach-leaf flutes are of no use. Hesitant and uncertain, I know not what to do. Then I tear a piece of light silk, like snow, and make a round fan, like the moon. Its light shimmers in my sleeves, and coolness rises from my hair. My thoughts drift to the green duckweed, and I draw a gentle breeze from the sky. My clothes feel light and crisp, and my linen is damp with sweat. It awakens my bones and muscles, and I feel a sudden, intense heat. But if I leave it, my heart burns with heat. Perhaps the Creator, wishing to alleviate the people's anger, has used human effort to provide this relief. Otherwise, how could the seasons of Heaven be taken away? I then write down a poem of appreciation, which I find remarkable. I use light dust to express my sorrow, and spread the message of farewell. Some depict a woman riding a phoenix, while others mistakenly depict a fly. I feel ashamed of my white feathers and inferiority compared to a palm leaf. When the Shang Qi (a concept in Chinese astrology) arrives, the people are at peace; jade dew descends upon all plants, and golden winds bring forth cassia branches. Silk robes flutter again, and autumn orchids bloom once more. A lone firefly casts its cold light, and crickets chirp in the darkness. Chests are discarded, and nets are woven. Ban Jie's lamentation at the crossroads is like that of Ban Zhao, and Jiang Yan's poem of desolation is like that of Ban Zhao. Alas! Use and discard have their times, and going out and staying have their appropriate places. This applies to people as well; why doubt things? Those foxes and badger, trying to survive the winter, surely they too grieve in the heat of summer! If one's actions and whereabouts are determined by the Way, then one should wait for the opportune time to find peace. Alas, sages and worthies are nowhere to be seen, and what do these two men know? 乙巳年十月二十三日 書於千橡市王心皓 On October 23, year snake, in the city of Thousand Oaks, written by Anita Wang Written style: free style (行書） Materials: black ink on bamboo slip wax resist paper Size of rice paper: 13” x 44” Others: 1.
