She urges on her chariot rapidly ,
With its screen of bamboos woven in squares , and its vermilion coloured leather .
The way from Lu is easy and plain ,
And the daughter of Qi's started on it in the evening .

Her four black horses are beautiful ,
And soft look their reins as they hang .
The way from Lu is easy and plain ,
And the daughter of Qi's is delighted and complacent .

The travellers are numerous .
The way from Lu is easy and plain ,
And the daughter of Qi's moves on with unconcern .

The waters of the Wen sweep on ;
The travellers are in crowds .
The way from Lu is easy and plain ,
And the daughter of Qi's proceeds at her ease .
