In fact, the eight poems of Qiu Xing are also difficult to understand. This kind of poetry has no literary value at all, just some failed poetry stuff. "
Hu Shi further analyzed the evidence: "It is difficult for an orthodox poem not to have mixed words."
Probably most people who make metrical poems get one or two good poems first, and then make up an eight-sentence metrical poem. Lao Du's metrical poems are not immune to such problems. For example,' a lonely bird in the river goes to the sky' is a good sentence; He made a mess of the last sentence "dragons sing in the storm". Another example is:' re-exposure into a trickle, how many stars are there at the beginning.' These examples can tell us that formal poetry is a dead end, and a genius like Lao Du still fails, let alone others. "
1August, 939, Hu Shi solemnly concluded: "Eight Poems of Autumn Prosperity were written by a fool who was a beginner of law poetry in later generations. There is no poem; The writing is mediocre. Not only are there no good poems, but there are not even good sentences. Among them, the following sentences, such as "flowers bloom twice" and "between rivers and waves", are all unreasonable sentences. In the Northern Song Dynasty, some people were clever enough to put many poems into Du Fu's anthology by mistake. Wang's Preface can prove that these eight poems are probably collected in vain. " Such an assertion is tantamount to "breaking the ground" for the singer of "Poet Sage".
