The Pi Kou; metaphorical. The bold licentious freedom of Wên Chiang in returning to Ch‘i;—against Duke Chuang of Lu, her son.

1Rent is the basket at the dam,
  Where bream and kuan abound;
As useless is the prince of Lu,
  In vigor wanting found.
Ch‘i’s daughter now to Chi comes back,
  Her followers as a cloud;
Her son should hold her fast in Lu,
  Her wickedness to shroud.

2Rent is the basket at the dam,
  Where bream and tench abound;
As useless is the prince of Lu,
  In vigor wanting found.
Back comes Ch‘i’s daughter, with a shower
  Of followers at her side, p. 113
Her son should hold her fast in Lu,
  Her wanton ways to hide.

3Rent is the basket at the dam;
  Fish in and out can go;
As useless is the prince of Lu,
  And vigor fails to show.
Back comes Ch‘i’s daughter, with a stream
  Of followers behind;
Her son should hold her fast in Lu,
  From such lewd ways confined.
