A Woman's Body has the fragrance of a Narcissus»
One should gaze long at King Chu's hill, then ascend it.
Midnight on the jade bed amid regretful dreams.
A flower opening beneath the thrust of the plum branch,
Rocking gently, gently her water-nymph thighs.
(Translated by Bernard Faure; «The Red
Thread»)
One should gaze long at King Chu's hill, then ascend it.
Midnight on the jade bed amid regretful dreams.
A flower opening beneath the thrust of the plum branch,
Rocking gently, gently her water-nymph thighs.
