5.74

時雨灑如膏,萬卉皆滋益,枯根甘自休,也似春無力。
耕夫曉尚眠,蠶婦夜多息,從茲家業荒,共落風塵跡。

Timely rain sprinkles like rich cream,
All the ten thousand plants receive moisture and benefit.
Withered roots willingly rest on their own,
Also as if spring had no strength.
The plowman still sleeps at dawn;
The silkworm woman rests much at night.
From this, family livelihoods become desolated,
Together falling into the traces of wind and dust.
