All youngsters—what do they worry about? They worry about seeing their temples turn grey. But when they turn grey, what then do they worry about? They worry about seeing their days draw to a close. Then they’ll head for the east to stay on Tai Mountain, Or, being exiled to the north, hide on Bei-mang Peak. How dare I take the liberty to speak these words out?! Such words for sure will injure my guest in old age.
