Inscription:
“The upright trees are green beneath the cloudy sky, gay with the color of spring;
beyond the eves the scudding clouds carry the rain away.
Talking without restriction of Yin and Yang, remote from the realm of pleasure,
nothing prevents visits to the empty valley where one can lodge in elegant retirement.
Foushan.”
