I didn't knit a piece of cloth all day, and tears rained down.

Through the myth that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can't meet each other across the Milky Way, this poem expresses the painful and sad feelings caused by the frustration of love.

At the beginning of the poem, I first wrote that the Weaver Girl looked at the Cowherd across the Milky Way. "Far" is the feeling in the heart of the weaver girl, but it is so far away in the eyes of the lover. Leading a cowherd is not only a cowherd in the eyes of Hehan women, but also a cowherd in the hearts of Hehan women. The first sentence is based on the feeling of the weaver girl, and the second sentence is written in front. These two poems are developed to describe various scenes and feelings in the following paragraphs. "Jiao Jiao Hehan Girl" is a writer and a landscape writer. "Jiao Jiao" not only describes the brightness of the Milky Way, paving the way for the later "simplicity", but also describes the graceful posture of the overall image of the Weaver Girl.

Next, the poem "Make a Loom with Fine Hands" describes the characteristics of the loom hand, the scene of labor and its diligent image. The word "slim" describes the shape of the weaver girl's hand, which is slender and slender. The word "Su" describes the color of Weaver's hand, white, tender and beautiful. "Clothes" is a verb, which describes the working posture of Weaver Girl. Very skillful and elegant. The reduplication "Zaza" describes the constant sound of the loom when the weaver weaves. The word "Nong" vividly describes the flight of the shuttle on the loom, and also describes the weaving action of the weaver girl. "Fine Jade Hand" is written like seeing its shape, while "Zhazha Sewing Machine" is written more like hearing its sound. These two poems not only describe the beauty of the Weaver Girl's body, but also deliberately describe the diligent image of the Weaver Girl, and even more deliberately write the lonely and depressed mood of the Weaver Girl because the Cowherd is not around.

"Tears fall like rain all day long" is the result of writing and weaving, and it is also the modality of weaving. Although the weaver girl is busy knitting all day, the result is "no rules to follow"; She was depressed all day and shed tears. What caused the weaver girl to cry like rain in vain? It turns out that the weaver girl is thinking about her cowherd, so she is here and her heart is there. The poem clearly describes the Weaver Girl, but secretly associates with the Cowherd, aiming at pointing out the psychological activities of the Weaver Girl and explaining the reasons why the Weaver Girl is fruitless. These two poems are also to write about the torture and pain suffered by the Weaver Girl because of her love.

The last four sentences are the poet's lament: "He Han is pure and shallow, how much is the difference?" When Ying Ying sleeps, her pulse is silent. "Through the Milky Way of Petunia and Weaver Girl, it is clear and shallow, and Petunia and Weaver Girl are not far apart. Although only separated by a water, they can't talk to each other. " "Yingying" is interpreted as describing the shallowness of water, or not describing water. The word "pulse" and the next sentence both describe the weaver girl. Notes of six ministers in Selected Works: "Ying Ying is beautiful. "This is exact. Many people think that "Yingying" must describe water before "Yishui", but its original meaning is overflowing. If it describes water, it should also describe its fullness, not its shallowness. Interpreting the greeting as shallow is influenced by the above "the rivers are clear and shallow", not the original intention of welcoming. " Yingying appears in Selected Works. In addition to this poem, there is also "Yingying's upstairs girl is as bright as a window". See also nineteen ancient poems. Shan Li's note: "Guangya said:' Win it, endure it.' Surplus and victory are the same, and the old saying goes. "This is to describe the beauty of women's manners, so the E.N.T. Notes are extended to" Li Duan ". Another example is Shang Mo Sang by Han Yuefu: "Ying Ying gave cloth to the public, and Ran Ran gave Zhong Chao." It also describes people's behavior. Since the Weaver Girl is called the Hehan Girl, the beauty of her appearance is also reflected between Hehan, which means "a full water". "Take the pulse", Shan Li said in Er Ya that "Take the pulse and look at each other". Guo Pu said,' The pulse indicates the phase'. "No word for pulse" means that although Hehan is shallow, Weaver Girl and Penny can only look at each other with the pulse and don't talk.

This poem is full of emotion and touching. The whole poem uses things as metaphors to describe people, with exquisite ideas. The poem is mainly about the Weaver Girl and Penny. It is very clever from the perspective of the Weaver Girl. From the weaving of the weaver girl to the tears and then to the words, it fully shows the bitterness of parting. The description of the weaver girl in the poem is very delicate, and the details are in place, such as "holding hands" and "crying like rain". At the same time, "Zaza Ji Nong" is a dynamic description. In this way, the characters emerge from such descriptions.

There are ten sentences in this poem, six of which use overlapping words, namely, distant, charming, slender, firm, ying ying and pulse. These reduplicated words make the syllables of this poem harmonious, concise and beautiful, full of interest, and naturally and appropriately express physical properties and feelings. Especially the last two sentences, if the image of a young woman full of sadness appears on paper, it is a rare meaningful and muddy sentence.
