Pei-ting has these strong men Who will fight like tigers and leop-
ards. Their valor has long been known as invincible; See how tranquil
the frontiers are now. But evil spirits have again brought forth the daring
rebel, There is need of the appointment of a commander in chief for the
present campaign. Keep not vigil under the besieged city of Yeh; Pro-
ceed to slay the whale on the unruly waves farther north.
