明覺禪師語錄 6.16

6.16

賢才當召試，彪炳對吾君，千古不遺恨，八元應主文。
岸花明列施，天籟拂微雲，後夜觀垂象，中台位已分。

Worthy talents are summoned for examination;
Resplendent, you present yourself before our sovereign.
Through a thousand ages no regret remains;
The Eight Talents surely govern literary affairs.
Riverbank flowers shine, arranged in display;
Heavenly pipes brush past faint clouds.
Later tonight, observing the celestial portents,
The position of the Central Terrace is already determined.
