12.156

Above, not a single tile to cover his head; / Below, not an inch of ground to plant an awl. / Stripped stark naked over his whole body, / What idle breath does he fight over with others? / Unable to do anything about a bit of ignorance, / What is he saying about the meaning of the Patriarch's coming from the West?
