The Ts‘ai Ko; narrative. A lady longs for the society of the object of her affection.

1He's there, the dolichos among!
Only one day from sight away,—
To me it seems as three months long!

2He's there, among the southernwood!
Only one day from sight away,—
It seems three seasons' solitude! p. 83

3Among the mugwort he appears!
Only one day from sight away,—
To me it seems as three fully years!
