English Translation

Cho Wŏn’s concubine, Lady Yi, was good at prose. There was a village woman whose husband was accused of stealing an ox. At the end of a written complaint Lady Yi composed for her, it reads, “I am not Weaver Maiden. How can my husband be Ox Herder?” When the prefect (t’aesu) read it, he was astounded and released the man in the end. According to the Yaoshantang ji 堯山堂記 (Records from the Hall of Yaoshan), when Li Bai had yet to be well known, he drove an ox and passed by county magistrate’s hall. The magistrate’s wife angrily reproached him. Li then presented a poem to her as an apology and said, 若非是織女何得問牽牛 If you are not Weaver Maiden,why would you inquire Ox Herder? The magistrate was amazed by him. These lines are also found in the Shixue dacheng (The Great Accomplishments in the Study of Poetry), and applying them to the ox theft is delightful (kahŭi).
