六月,浴於東溪,越二日,天大雷雨,太液池岸北水入東湖,聲聞數里,魚鱉盡去,池遂涸,而北口高岸亦崩,處機歎曰:「山其摧乎,池其涸乎,吾將與之俱乎!」 In the sixth month, while bathing in the Eastern Stream, two days later a great thunderstorm struck. The northern waters of the Great Liquid Pool flooded into the Eastern Lake with a roar heard for several li. Fish and turtles fled, the pool dried up, and the high northern bank collapsed. Chuji sighed, "Will the mountain fall? Will the pool dry up? Must I perish with them?"
