The Book of Poetry, tr. by James Legge, [1876], at sacred-texts.com
2Buzzing round the blue flies hear,
About the jujubes flocking!
So the slanderers appear,
Whose calumnies are shocking.
By no law or order bound,
All the kingdom they confound.
3How they buzz, those odious flies,
Upon the hazels clust’ring!
And as odious are the lies
Of those slanderers blust’ring.
Hatred stirred between us two
Shows the evil they can do.
