30 Brilliance

Brilliance. Gainful purity.
Continue.
Tame the bull: fortune.

The changing lines

The second line:
Yellow brilliance.
Great fortune.

Brilliance sets with the sun.
Do not drum on a crock with your singing.
When great elders' sighs come:
misfortune.
The sixth line:
The king goes to battle.
Admirably, he humbles the chieftains
and captures vile rebels. No fault.
