Careful observation of the scenery, capturing images from different angles of vision, hearing and touch, clever arrangement of images, accurate description, high and low contrast, contrast of colors, combination of motion and static, ingenuity, great attention to the choice of words and antithesis, and achieved good results. This is the highest achievement that the "four spirits" and the five laws can achieve.
There are only a few "Four Spirits", but there are several excellent and complete poems in each capital, which are the best among the quatrains in the Song Dynasty. For example:
The boat stopped swimming and returned to the tide, and four or five people lived in one bay.
Greedy to see Guang Xiao invade the moonlight, I don't know what's lost.
(Zhao Xu, "On the Ship")

(Xú Zhēng's "New Cool")

In April, there were few idle people in the countryside, and sericulture was planted in the fields.

It's past midnight, and the invited guests haven't come yet. I tapped the chess pieces bored and shook the wick of an oil lamp.
(Zhao Shixiu's The Guest)
