Shijing I. 5. (63)

There is a fox, solitary and suspicious,
At that dam over the Qi.
My heart is sad ; –
That man has no lower garment.

There is a fox, solitary and suspicious,
At that deep ford of the Qi.
My heart is sad ; –
That man has no girdle.

There is a fox, solitary and suspicious,
By the side there of the Qi.
My heart is sad ; –
That man has no clothes.
