《五柳先生傳》 陶淵明

先生不知何許人也，亦不詳其姓字。宅邊有五柳樹，因以為號焉。閑靜少言，不慕榮利。好讀書，不求甚解；每有會意，便欣然忘食。性嗜酒，家貧不能常得。親舊知其如此，或置酒而招之；造飲輒盡，期在必醉。既醉而退，曾不吝情去留。環(huán)堵蕭然，不蔽風日；短褐穿結，簞瓢屢空，晏如也。常著文章自娛，頗示己志。忘懷得失，以此自終。

贊曰：黔婁之妻有言：“不戚戚于貧賤，不汲汲于富貴?！逼溲云澣羧酥畠壓?？銜觴賦詩，以樂其志。無懷氏之民歟？葛天氏之民歟？

The Story of Five-Willow Gentleman
By Tao Yuan Ming

The Gentleman's place of birth is not known, nor is his name or surname. He is called such by the fact that five willow trees grow beside his house.

He is a quiet man, being of little speech. He pursues no glory, nor material gain. He is fond of reading, but indulges not in hair-splitting. Each time he comes to understand something he is so happy that he forgets his meals.

He likes wine; but being poor he cannot obtain it often. His relations and old acquaintances knowing this occasionally invite him to drink; and each time he goes, he is sure to finish all the wine, or become quite drunk; and having not got drunk he would retire, caring little to stay or to depart.

His house is bare around, scarcely good enough to protect him from rain and wind. He is clad in a tattered jacket of hair-cloth, and his kitchen vessels are often found empty, but he is perfect at ease. He often enjoys himself by writing, thereby to show his opinions; and he is determined to remain so to the end, being indifferent about material loss or gain.

Epiloque: Chien Lu says, "Neither grumble about poverty, nor crave for honour and riches." This is probably said of men of his kind, who, with wine-cup upon their lips, recite poems, and amuse themselves with their own ideas? Are they Wu Hwai's subjects, or are they Ko Tien's subjects?
