二
掃地焚香閉閣眠,
In a mist-like curtain on a ripple-marked mat. When a guest comes, I wake and wonder where am I,
簟紋如水帳如煙。
客來夢覺知何處?
West windows propp'd open, I see waves meet the sky. In 1082, & friend travelling through Huangzhou on official business had had a little three-room addition built onto the house at Lingao, which overlooked the Yangzi River , in order t0 make him more comfortable. It was called Southern Hall.
掛起西窗浪接天。
