    This uncut manuscript - long considered to be from the Han - was in the end securely dated to the Tang by an analysis of the painting of the ruffs on the two corncrakes depicted. The power of the poem, suggesting the circle of Tu Fu, has impressed scholars ever since; and MB of Princetown, who organized the restoration of the fragment, has commented warmly on 'its very high level of poetic impulse and eidetic line'.

    A Chinese Scholars Reflection (ca. 872 A.D.

    Chobai flows slowly

    Tracking full moon.

    Towards purple bamboo island

    Scholar walks slowly before dawn.

    I jumped up as I dreamed I my teacher

    Now distant in Goluzia

    Had texted and talked of shopping;

    Needs tofu cakes, rice rusks and wine:

    But the dream untwisted toward first light;

    And through bamboo only

    A mischievous sprite wind;


    And I put down my commentary on Confucius,

    To get out, at dawn, to embrace Teacher, you!

    But teacher is long gone in Goludzia country

    West, Kazakhstan abutts on our blue.

    And, west of this, and south

    Green haze at morning. Mirrored in the

    Chobai reeds reflection while,

    The corncrake starting,

    My cheeks, at the memory, wet with dew.
