A Feast of Lanterns, by L. Cranmer-Byng, [1916], at sacred-texts.com
Ou-Yang Hsiu, Chief Minister of State 1061 A.D., was one of the two foremost poets of the Sung dynasty. His poems, which have been all too little translated, are remarkable both for their exquisite imagery and colouring. Together with Sung Ch‘i, he produced the history of the T‘ang period. Cf. A. Lute of Jade, p. 111.
