Li He
Among the borrowed lines from Chinese poetry (as translated by Graham) were those written by Li He, whose poem "Don't Go Out of the Door" contains the line ""Witness the man who raved at the wall as he wrote his questions to Heaven" (公看呵壁書問天); Li Shangyin, whose poetry contained the lines "watch little by little the night turns around"" (暫見夜闌干), "countless the twigs which tremble in dawn" (撼曉幾多枝) and "one inch of love is one inch of ashes" (一寸相思一寸灰); and Du Mu, whose poetry contained the line "Lotuses lean on each other in yearning" (多少綠荷相倚恨).
