Qing Dynasty｜Yang Yisun's Seal Script "The Golden Inscription of Zhou Temple"


Yang Yisun (1812-1881), a calligrapher of the Qing Dynasty. The courtesy name is Ziyu, the nickname is Yongchun, and the late nickname is Haosou. He was born in Changshu, Jiangsu Province. Gongzhuanli is like a rival to Deng Shi. His spirit is not as good as that of Feng Shen. Yang Yisun's seal script is full of the flavor of gold and stone. It does not have as many fancy decorations as Deng Shiru's. It is tepid, neither exciting nor vigorous. It is implicit and worthy of learning and reference.









Interpretation

People in ancient times were cautious in speaking, so be careful! Be careful! No more words, more words lead to failure. Nothing is troublesome, nothing is troublesome. If you are happy, you must abstain, and you will regret nothing you have done. Don't worry about it, it will cause long-lasting harm. Don't worry about the harm, the disaster will be great. Don't say that there is no residue, the disaster will happen. Don't say don't hear it, the demon is waiting for you. The glow is everlasting, and the flames are still there. If the trickle is not blocked, it will become a river. Continuously, it will become an outline. If you don't cut down the green grass, you will find an axe. If you are not careful, it is the root of disaster. What kind of injury is it? It is also the door of disaster. Those who are strong will not die, and those who are eager to win will meet their enemies. When a thief complains about his master, the people harm his nobles. A gentleman knows that the world is unstoppable, so he sets it down to make others admire him. No one can compete with her if she is holding on to her. Everyone is going to the other side, but I alone keep this. Everyone is confused, but I alone cannot follow. I know what's inside and don't discuss skills with others. Although I respect wealth, no one can harm me. A man whose rivers are as long as a hundred valleys is considered humble. Heaven has no relatives and always associates with good people. Be careful! Be careful!
