3.153

Bitterly studying doctrines and sentiments, unmatched in the world; (Having cultivation and having realization)
Emerging, in all matters he already surpasses the multitude. (Though having cultivation and realization, fundamentally coming from within the honored and noble)
Poetry formed in five characters like the snows of the three winter months; (Cannot be defiled)
The brush dripping fine strokes like clouds over the four seas. (Does not abide)
Accumulating merit through ten thousand scrolls, displaying the sage era; (Cultivation and realization through great merit)
With single-minded loyalty and filial piety, assisting the enlightened sovereign. (Knowing there is one above, only then can he serve and venerate)
Salt and plums [of statecraft] are not known from birth; (Cultivation and realization are also the same)
Why labor the golden list to display the utmost merit? (Not relying on cultivation and realization; not awaiting merit)
