46.40

The *Bintui lu* of Mr. Zhao states: When Su Dongpo was prefect of Yangzhou, he dreamed that he was walking among the mountains and a tiger came to bite him. A Daoist shouted at the tiger and drove it away. The next morning, a Daoist came to call on him, saying, 'When you went out last night, were you not frightened?' Dongpo rebuked him: 'You rascal, I have not yet caned your back! Did you think I was unaware of your midnight arts?' The Daoist was terrified and withdrew. Huizong's dream of the Divine Firmament was of this sort.
