7.4
In his coming, what did he seek? In his going, nothing was attained. / Desolate, crossing the ridges, ten thousand miles walking alone; / Pure and white, transmitting the family tradition, nine years of a single silence. / Needle and mustard seed meeting, the wonder cannot be named; / Differing by a hair's breadth, the ruin cannot be blocked. / Knowing the fault, he corrected it; seeing the difficulty, he withdrew. / Who goes and who comes? / Buying for oneself and selling for oneself. / Concealed right before one's face, the eyes are filled with dark blossoms; / Praising him from afar across the shore, separated by a sea of whales.
