This poem describes the scenery of West Lake in Yingzhou in late spring, expressing the author's leisurely and comfortable thoughts about the lake and mountains. The style is clear and bright, easy and natural.
The first film depicts the scene of late spring in Yingzhou, layer by layer dyed into a "picture of the end of spring." However, the author uses the praise of "West Lake is good" to unify the whole poem. Contrary to the low mood of the poets of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he enthusiastically praises the beauty of the dying spring and writes about the leisurely mood when retreating.
In the second part, the tourists dispersed and the West Lake seemed particularly quiet. The word "spring sky" created an open, quiet and leisurely mood. In this silence, the poet suddenly discovered that late spring also has the natural beauty of "the luxury is gone and the true purity is seen", the quiet state, and Tao Yuanming's pastoral charm of retreat, "the mountain air becomes better day by day and the birds return to each other". "The return of the two swallows" is a metaphor for Ouyang Xiu's retreat to Yingzhou, where his body and mind gained a natural leisure that was not available in the officialdom. In his loneliness, he let the swallows whisper softly and chatted with him to comfort him.
The whole poem describes both the loss of prosperous and beautiful scenery, and the discovery of empty and quiet beauty. Although there is melancholy, it is more broad-minded, and some are high and broad-minded, which fully demonstrates Ouyang Xiu's broad-minded mind of loving the mountains and rivers.
