I Was Received in an Early Audience at Heaven-Gate and Then at Noon I Was Summoned to the Yu-shun Gate. In the Evening I Withdrew, and Improvised This Poem

The Purple Precincts touch Longevity Mountain
to the west;
twice I am summoned to view the Dragon Visage!
I bow down, receive the wise counsel of the Sage,
and then, my sleeves filled with Heaven's fragrance,
I emerge through the ninefold gates.
