Hyŏnho’s Trivial Tales (Compendium of Remarks on Poetry)
Entry Text
余王考正郎公諱濬。甞次鄭耐菴士雄所嘲車五山車字韻古詩。車滄洲見而激賞。以為文章士。又甞有聯云。春來消息一鴈背。老去光陰雙鬂邊。桑楡晚計靑山在。稷契初心白髮飄。鄭東溟極稱賞云
My late grandfather Im Chun, a fifth-rank official, once matched an ancient style poem by Chŏng Saung 鄭士雄 (b. 1536; sobriquet Naeam [Enduring Hut]) mocking Ch’a Ch’ŏllo written to the rhyme of “Ch’a” 車. Ch’a read the poem and praised it intensely and called my grandfather a scholar with literary talents. He also composed the following two couplets, 春來消息一雁背老去光陰雙鬢邊 Tidings of spring comeon the back of a lone goose.The time that has gone byshows on the hair on my temples. 桑榆晚計靑山在稷契初心白發飄 I plan my late years, sinking westward,at Evergreen Mountain.Ji and Qi kept their first love for the stateuntil their white hair flew in the air. Chŏng Tugyŏng gave them extreme praises.
