A poem that takes the initiative to do practical things

Read to my son on winter nights.

Author: Lu You

The ancients learned nothing, and it takes time to grow old. What you get on paper is so shallow that you never know what you have to do.

translate

The ancients spared no effort in their studies, and often achieved nothing when they were old.

After all, the knowledge gained from books is not perfect. If you want to understand the truth deeply, you must practice it yourself.
