"Valley rain, valley rain and birth also."
The "Seventy-two Waiting Solutions to the Moon Order" says:
"In the middle of March, since the rains, the earth is pulsating,
Now it rains again in the valley of water.

"The lotus leaves of Lake Mu are less than money,
Although there are many willows, they do not hinder the ship.
The new seedlings on both sides of the strait have only passed the rain,
Sunset ditch water rings in the creek field.
The rain on the house of the Dove Ming Valley opened,
Hengtang wandering girl swing boat back.
Peach blossoms behind the silkworm qi bath,
Bamboo shoots come when the swallows are drawn. ”
