Decline is a poem of the Qin Dynasty. It uses rhetorical devices such as rhetorical questions, argot and intertextuality. The expression of emotion turned to emotion. Re-chapter and change words, and rhyme is harmonious. There are long and short sentence patterns, strong sense of rhythm, harmonious and beautiful rhythm and extremely delicate words. Decline has also become a common image in later poetry, which has a far-reaching impact on later classical poetry.
There are only two short chapters in the poem, both of which begin with "Decline, Decline, Hu Bugui": It's dark, it's dark, why don't you go home? The poet then confessed the reason: "Because of the micro-monarch, Hu Lou is exposed in the middle"; "The bow of Weijun is in the mud." It means to work day and night in the dew and mud all year round for the monarch and to support his noble body. However, there are only two changes in the first chapter and the second chapter of the poem "Decline", but it is in this ingenious change that the originality of the author's words is reflected.
