這漢一生空倔彊,偏向人前放軟頑,涅槃路上栽荊棘,解脫門前緊著關。不別法身三種病,豈識楞嚴義八還,謾把少林無孔笛,等閑吹過汨羅灣。

All his life this fellow has been stubbornly obstinate in vain, / Yet before others he deliberately displays soft indolence. / Planting brambles along the path to nirvāṇa, / Fastening bolts firmly before the gate of liberation. / Without distinguishing the three kinds of sickness of the Dharmakāya, / How could he know the Śūraṅgama's meaning of the eight returns? / In vain holding the Shaolin holeless flute, / Idly playing it across the Miluo bend.
