Ode 16
Language: Latin  after the Chinese (中文) 
Lenis flat ventus ac tenuis decidit imber. 
Gallus suum Kie-kie cantat. 
Cum virum sapientem videre jam detur, 
quomodo curas non deponerem? 

Flat ventus et simul decidit imber; 
ventusque et pluvia suum Sịao-siao ingeminant; 
Gallus autem suum Kiao-kiao. Cum jam viri sapientis 
conspectu fruar, quomodo jam non mihi beno esset? 

Flat ventus, decidit imber et coelum est tenebricosum. 
Usque cantat gallus. 
Cum jam viri sapientis conspectu fruar, 
quomodo non gauderem?
