Nature
On Seeing the Snow-Peak of Chung-nan
Translated by Witter Bynner and Kiang Kang-hu (1929) · From The Jade Mountain (1929)
Nature
See how Chung-nan Mountain soars
With its white top over floating clouds —
And a warm sky opening at the snow-line
While the town in the valley grows colder and colder.
