Why did Lü Benzhong write two versions of this poem himself? Just learn the characteristics of ancient poems

preface

Reading Zeng Jihu's "Poetry of Boats", I saw an interesting story:

Dong Lai's "Ji Yin Sending the Deceased" (Liu Shi Fei Shi and Jun Bei) has two books: Dong Lai wrote it when he was young, and then lost his original, and in Linchuan, because he and his apprentices held up this poem, they died, so they used the first four sentences and the last two sentences to supplement one; [Falling Flowers and Lonely Chang'an Road] is an old poem, and those who [a thousand books and a hundred books must be matched] are posthumous works.

This Mr. Donglai (Lü Benzhong) wrote a poem "Jiyin Sending the Deceased" when he was young, but later the original work was lost, and he only remembered the first four sentences and the last two sentences, so he used it as a blank question, and he added a few new sentences.

Later, the original work was found again, so two versions of the poem appeared.

First, the new work of "Ji Yin Sending the Dead"

The following song is a new version later:

Liu Shufei said goodbye to Jun, and Nanlou looked at the wine with the bright moon.

When the moon seemed to part that year, the willow flew like a jun.

A thousand books and a hundred books must be completed, and the thoughts are not seen to make people thin.

Nian Jun's affection is only the same as before, and the skeleton of Gu I is no longer old.

There are letters crossing the Yellow River in the dynasty, and the goose foot system is more snared.

There are many grasses in the south and north of the city, and The moon is so worried.

It can be seen that this is a seven-word ancient poem with a change of rhyme. From this poem, we can see the law of the change of rhyme of ancient poetry.

The first two sentences rhyme with a rhyme:

Liu Shufei and Jun [farewell], the south building to see the wine clear [moon].

When two sentences rhyme in a group, both poems rhyme. So when the three or four sentences are rhymed, both sentences also rhyme, and this time the flat voice is changed:

The moon seems to be parting [when], and the willow is like a jun where [flying].

The third group is four sentences, which are converted to rhymes. It should be noted that the rhyme is divided into in, into the sound alone, up and down is generally not mixed. This group is rhymed:

A thousand books and a hundred books should be phased [on], and Sijun did not see people [thin].

Nian Jun's affection is only the same as before, and the skeleton of Gu I is no longer [old].

In addition, a group of four sentences, in the third sentence is generally whitefoot, white feet and the opposite of 仄韵平仄, so it is the end of the flat voice: beginning.

The next group, again in a group of four sentences, but this group of sentences rhymes, without white feet:

There are letters crossing the Yellow River in the dynasty, and there are many nets of wild goose foot books [Luo].

Chengnan Chengbei Fangcao [more], Yueming is so worried [Ho].

Below, we look at the old version that Lü Benzhong made when he was young.

Second, the old work of "Jiyin Sending the Dead" is a miscellaneous poem

The old version of the poem is not a Qi Yan poem, and the 11th and 12th verses are five-word verses, so this is a miscellaneous ancient poem:

When Liu Shu flew goodbye to Jun, Nanlou looked at the wine to see the crescent moon.

When the moon seemed to leave that year, Liu Shu flew with Jun.

The flowers fell silently on Chang'an Road, and nine people went on the strange ten people.

Quasi-planned Guihong sent the book, and turned back to have lost the Qinzhou tree.

The husband has a lot of love and can be remembered, and he is alone in his heart to keep the poor and lowly.

Persuade the king to bend the king with gold, and give the king a long and short song.

There are many spring grasses in the south of the city and the north of the city, and the bright moon is so worried.

The first four sentences are the same, but different from the fifth sentence.

The four sentences 5, 6, 7, and 8 are a set of rhymes, with rhymes and white feet flat:

The flowers fell silently Chang'an [Road], and the strange people and nine people [went].

Quasi-intended to return to Hong to send the book, back to the Qin Prefecture [tree].

9, 10 two sentences are a set of rhymes, of course, both sentences rhyme, this time the rhyme did not change the flat, or rhyme:

The husband's thin affection can be "thought", and er Duhe's heart is poor and "lowly".

The next four sentences are grouped and turned to flat rhymes, but there are a few differences. First of all, the first two sentences have been changed to five sentences, and the last two sentences are still seven sentences. From the perspective of rhyme, the first sentence does not rhyme, and the next three sentences all rhyme, which is a more special phenomenon:

Advise the king to bend the king with gold, and give the king a long and short [song].

The spring grass in the south of the city and the north of the city is [much], and the bright moon is so sad [Ho].

Third, the difference between the poems and the rhymes

In ancient poems, there are very few cases of going up and going to Tongbai, for example, Lü Benzhong wrote the same poem decades apart, and did not go up to Tongbai.

However, when filling in words, it is common to go up and take a pledge. For example, this poem in Lü Ben, "Butterfly Love Flower Spring Words":

The warbler is not yet twilight.

The willows flowed, just past the pond rain. 【Upper Voice】

The grass is full of flowers and trees.

Ruthless butterflies fly around.

Sleep up a wisp of incense. 【Upper Voice】

Jade seal back pattern, wait for personal payment.

Peach Leaf is silent. 【Upper Voice】

The tip of the eyebrow is a little bit whether you know it or not. 【Square moment cut, tone, upper sound】

Conclusion

In the two poems of Lü Benzhong (1084-1145), some of the new editions record that the author is Zhang Zai, and the old version is not disputed, the author is Lü Benzhong.

Ancient poems can be rhymed, two sentences are rhymed, and both sentences rhyme. Four sentences are rhymed, generally 1, 2, 4 rhymes, and the third sentence is whitefoot. Double-numbered sentences must rhyme.

However, there are also three-sentence ancient poems (such as Cen Shan's "Walking Ma Chuan Xing Feng Feng Dafu out of the Western Expedition"), which is another matter.
