Shi Jing, The Book of Odes: Greater Odes of the Kingdom, Decade of Dang
* I found the best option for the weekly reminder emails, via Gmail. The external service options are more involved than our purposes require. Does anyone know anything about how to arrange an Apps Script? Basically all it has to do is tell ten people, on Saturdays, to come and get their juice/poems.
Until someone knows what to do there, I'll send out manual messages weekly. If you'd like to receive these and are not getting them, please let me know.
* If you haven't read it yet, chapter one, on tetrasyllabic shi poetry, in How to Read Chinese Poetry is hugely useful for the Book of Odes, imo.
* Remember you can also look at How to Read Chinese Poetry in Context.
* IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS WHO MIGHT LIKE TO JOIN or have other ideas, please let me know on this post.
* Every week I search the poems' English results to see if I can find any scholarship or neat bits and pop the results in Resources. Here is this week's collection.
**NEXT BATCH JUNE 7.**

Re: 258. 雲漢 - Yun Han
Anyway, Baike says this was about a four year drought during the reign of Zhou Xuan wang, but also says it was written by someone else, who is unknown.
Baike also mentions that:
Of the remnant of Zhou, among the black-haired people,
There will not be half a man left;
Was early considered as a model of exaggeration / rhetoric.
