不食至七日,能将礼自居。
既然严像设,亦复奠朝晡。
不食至七日,能将礼自居。
既然严像设,亦复奠朝晡。
他连续七天不进食,
却依然能恪守礼仪。
既然庄严地设立了神像,
他也早晚进行祭奠。
Fasting for seven days, he took no food nor drink,
Yet could uphold the rites, on propriety's brink.
Since solemn statues were erected with due care,
He also made offerings morning and evening there.
通过极端行为完成文化认同的仪式性表达。
赞美扶桑国使者恪守礼制,以绝食守礼展现其文明修养。
本诗为五言绝句,押平声韵。
