"Dechen Tie (德忱帖)" is one of Mi Fu's famous "Nine Posts of Cursive Calligraphy (草书九帖)" and one of the masterpieces of his mature calligraphy in his later years. From the beginning to the end of this post, the spirit and rhyme are very smooth, the writing is like flying, joyful, without scruples, and the stippling is full of wit. Carefully appreciate and read, but it is true to each other, the words and characters change with the momentum of the composition, the pen is wild and unpredictable, and the up and down spirits, interphase and circulation, have a strong sense of rhythm.
Original post by Mi Fu Dechen:
五月四日，芾启：蒙书为尉（通慰），审道味清适。涟，陋邦也，林君必能言之。他至此，见未有所止，蹄涔不能容吞舟。闽氏泛海，客游甚众，求门馆者常十辈，寺院下满，林亦在寺也。莱去海出陆有十程，已贻书应求，倘能具事，力至海乃可，此一舟至海三日尔。海鳇云自山东来，在弊邑境未过来尔。御寇所居，国不足，岂贤者欲去之兆乎？呵呵！甘贫乐淡，乃士常事，一动未可知，宜审决去就也。便中奉状。芾顿首。葛君德忱阁下。
