7.32

不向雙林寄此身(只為他把不住。囊裏豈可藏錐)却於梁土惹埃塵(若不入草。爭見端的。不風流處也風流)
當時不得誌公老(作賊不須本。有牽伴底癩兒)
也是栖栖去國人(正好一狀領過。便打)

"Not lodging this body in the Twin Trees,"
(Only because he could not hold back. How could an awl be concealed in a bag?)
"Instead he stirred up dust in the land of Liang."
(If one does not enter the grass, how can one see the reality? In a place devoid of elegance, there is also elegance.)
"If not for Old Master Zhi at that time,"
(To be a thief requires no capital; there is a scabby fellow tagging along.)
"He too would have been an unsettled man driven from the country."
(Just right to accept the charge and take the beating!)"} ],
