One day, wishing to take his mind off his troubles for a bit, he had dragged himself, stick in hand, to the main road, when it chanced that the suddenly caught sight of a Taoist with a limp - a crazy, erratic figure in hempen sandals and tattered clothes, who chanted the following words to himself as he advanced towards him:
可巧这日拄了拐杖挣挫到街前散散心时,忽见那边来了一个跛足道人,疯癫落脱,麻屣鹑衣,口内念着几句言词,道是:
"Men all know that salvation should be won,
But with ambition won't have done, have done.
Where are the famous ones of days gone by?
In grassy graves they lie now, every one.
Men all know that salvation should be won,
But with their riches won't have done, have done.
Each day they grumble they've not made enough.
When they've enough, it's goodnight everyone!"
Men all know that salvation should be won,
But with their loving wives they won't have done.
The darlings every day protest their love:
But once you're dead, they're off with another one.
Men all know that salvation should be won,
But with their children won't have done,have done.
Yet though of parents fond there is no lack,
Of grateful children saw I ne'er a one."
世人都晓神仙好,惟有功名忘不了!古今将相在何方?荒冢一堆草没了。世人都晓神仙好,只有金银忘不了!终朝只恨聚无多,及到多时眼闭了。世人都晓神仙好,只有姣妻忘不了!君生日日说恩情,君死又随人去了。世人都晓神仙好,只有儿孙忘不了!痴心父母古来多,孝顺儿孙谁见了?
