Prison wall
Author: Tan Sitong (Late Qing Dynasty)
Desperate to stop thinking about James Zhang, he endured death and treated Dugan for a while.
My smile goes from the horizontal knife to the sky and stays in the liver and gallbladder.
Vernacular translation
The rush of life is too stressful, so I come to live with everyone. I hope the dead Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao can be protected by people like James Zhang. I also hope that my comrades can stand by and accomplish the great cause of political reform and reform like Dugan.
I drew my sword and laughed at the sky, because the deceased and the survivors were sincere and aboveboard, as majestic as Kunlun Mountain.
