Luwuh, poet, saw In the tea serv-
lee the same harmony and order which
relgned through all things. In his eel
cbrated work, the "Cha-king" ("The
Holy Scripture of Tca'). he formulated
the code of tea. He has since been
worshlped as the tutelnry god of the
Chinese tea merchants.
In the fifth chapter Iuwuh describes
The method of making tea. He dwells
ON the much discussed question of the
choice Of water and the degree of boil

thin spring Is the best; the river water
and the spring water come next In
the order of excellence There are
three stages of boiling The first boil
Is when the little bubbles Ike the eyes
of fishes swim ON the surface. The
second boil Is when the bubbles IRE
