This couplet was written by Gu Xiancheng, the leader of Lindong Party in Ming Dynasty ("Talking about the Interest of Honesty" 275). Gu founded Donglin Academy in Wuxi. After giving lectures, he often comments on state affairs. Later, people used it to advocate "saving the country and not forgetting to study", which still has positive significance. The first couplet combines the sound of reading with the sound of wind and rain, which is both poetic and meaningful. The bottom line is the ambition to rule the country and level the world. Wind to rain, home to country, ears to heart. Extremely neat, especially when used with words, such as the sound of books.

Moonlight, mountain color, grass color, tree color, cloud color, cloud gas, and the colors of the 48,000-foot mountain peak are all empty.
The above two couplets and the first couplet use the same artistic means. Without the author and age, it is impossible to determine who is innovative and who is imitative. But it can be explained that the same artistic means can express completely different ideological interests.

The couplet is a eulogy for the 80th birthday of Qianlong, which is about cutting people (Qianlong), land (Wansongling) and time (Double Ninth Festival). Moreover, it adopts the method of dividing characters (eighteen gongs in Song Dynasty), overlapping characters (everywhere, year after year) and self-respect of inverted characters (eighty, eighteen; 10% off, 10% off) high skill, not a cliche, not a word game, although it is flattering, it can be described as the best couplet.

Therefore, structurally, the three-sentence pattern is only a partial repetition of the seven-sentence pattern. This is the best structure that we didn't mention above. This couplet is also very particular about the use of allusions. The first story with "Feng Xuan Guest" and the next story with "Su Qin and Lian Heng suing Qin" are all from the Warring States Policy. Reading this couplet is equivalent to revisiting two famous books.

Hu Taicang, a native of Shaxi, 193 1 studied in the United States, with a master's degree in electrical engineering. After returning to China, he became a professor and librarian of Shanghai Nanyang University (predecessor of Jiaotong University). During the Anti-Japanese War, Aiko paid homage to his own death in Myanmar, because he wrote "Crying for Children", which was painful and drowned his mind in wine. Wu used to be the director of Taicang Library, a famous scholar, and made friends with Hu. The first part says, "My brother left silently, leaving a sad image of crying his son and drinking hard." The second part says, "Your son can't come back even if he wants to, so he has to let the fallen flowers of spring bury your poetic soul in the wind and rain. "This couplet skillfully uses the homonym of" elder brother ",which makes" knowledge "and" silence "in sharp contrast. It uses" Zigui "to homonymize homesickness and even the crying cuckoo" Zigui ",and uses overlapping words, such as whimpering. The beauty of antithesis has profound implications, and the feelings of grief and indignation are vividly expressed by artistic means, which can be called elegiac couplet. This couplet was provided by the calligrapher Mr. Hu Shengqi according to his memory fifty years ago, which is very valuable, otherwise it would have been submerged.
