Are scattered over the world wind…driven。

Amid the storm there jogs along

A simple wight who croons a song。

O poor plum trees; the gale doth tear

Your blossoms off and leave you bare。〃

〃Here at last is Sleeping Dragon;〃 thought Liu Bei; hastily slipping out of the saddle。

He saluted the donkey rider as he neared and said; 〃Master; it is hard to make way against this cold wind。 I and my panions have been waiting long。〃

The rider got off his donkey and returned the bow; while Zhuge Jun from behind said; 〃This is not my brother。 It is his father…in…law Huang Chenyan。〃

Liu Bei said; 〃I chanced to hear the song you were singing。 It is very beautiful。〃

Huang Chenyan replied; 〃It is a little poem I read in my son in…laws house; and I recalled it as I crossed the bridge and saw the plum trees in the hedge。 And so it happened to catch your ear; Noble Sir。〃

〃Have you seen your son…in…law lately?〃 asked Liu Bei。

〃That is just what I have e to do now。〃

At this Liu Bei bade him farewell and went on his way。 The storm was very grievous to bear; but worse than the storm was the grief in his heart as he looked back at Sleeping Dragon Ridge。

One winters day through snow and wind

A prince rode forth the sage to find;

Alas! His journey was in vain;

And sadly turned he home again。

The stream stood still beneath the bridge

A sheet of ice draped rock and ridge;

His steed benumbed with biting cold

But crawled as he were stiff and old。

The snowflakes on the riders head

Were like pear…blossoms newly shed;

Or like the willow…catkins light

They brushed his cheek in headlong flight。

He stayed his steed; he looked around;

The snow lay thick on tree and mound;

The Sleeping Dragon Ridge lay white

A hill of silver; glistening bright。

After the return to Xinye; the time slipped away till spring was near。 Then Liu Bei cast lots to find the propitious day for another journey in search of Zhuge Liang。 The day being selected; he fasted for three days and then changed his dress ready for the visit。 His two brothers viewed the preparations with disapproval and presently made up their minds to remonstrate。

The sage and the fighting generals never agree;

A warrior despises humility。

The next chapter will tell what they said。
