Lot 79苏秦封相
中平富贵有如春梦熟
世人何苦力争求
任他秉笏当朝立
到死惟留土一坯
Basic reading
AI-assisted readingThe poem in plain language
The poem compares wealth and status to a vivid spring dream and questions the effort spent pursuing them. Even a person holding an official tablet at court ultimately leaves only a mound of earth. Moving from splendor to life's limits, it reduces the absolute weight given to rank and possession.
The central idea
Rank and wealth are placed beside the limits of a human life. The verse questions exhausting pursuit without declaring all effort meaningless. Recognition cannot preserve everything; relationships and work sincerely valued also deserve a share of one’s days.
