The five-character quatrains of the Mid-Autumn Festival are as follows:
1. "Autumn Eve" by Du Mu in the Tang Dynasty: Wangxiangtai is on September 9th, three hundred and sixty days a year. Withered vines, old trees and dim crows, small bridges and flowing water, people's houses, west wind and thin horses on the ancient road.
2. "Climbing the Stork Tower" by Wang Zhihuan of the Tang Dynasty: The sun sets over the mountains and the Yellow River flows into the sea. If you want to see a thousand miles away, go to the next level.
3. One of two poems written by Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty, "On an Autumn Night, I'm Coming Out of the Fence Gate to Welcome the Coolness at Dawn": The courtyard is a little deep, and there are countless greens under the bayberry curtain. Passing through the small fence, the wind filled the alley, not only was there light thunder but also the torrential rain.
4. Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty wrote "Two Thoughts on Coming Out of the Fence Gate to Welcome the Coolness at Dawn on an Autumn Night" Part 2: All the birds are flying high, and the lone cloud is alone. I never get tired of seeing each other, only Jingting Mountain.
5. "Going into the Wine" written by Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty: If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River will come up from the sky and rush to the sea never to return. Don't you see, the bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and it looks like blue silk in the morning and turns to snow in the evening.
