論詩三十首（二十八）金 – 元好問
古雅難將子美親，精純全失義山真。
論詩寧下涪翁拜，未作江西社裏人。
A Quatrain by Yuan Hao-wen (Jin Dynasty)
Classical grace alone nears Du Fu’s spirit not,
By mere subtle craft, Shang-yin’s soul is never caught.
Though for verse, I may still extol Huang Ting-jian’s art,
The taste of Jiang Xi School I shall fain commend naught.
