雞寒上機。鴨寒下水。時節不相饒。古今常顯理。
寒松十里吼清風。流水一溪聲未已。

When chickens are cold, they perch on the loom; when ducks are cold, they plunge into the water.
The seasons show no leniency; past and present constantly manifest the principle.
Cold pines over ten li roar in the pure wind;
A single stream of flowing water makes sound without end.
