     Jūn yì jiàn fú wéi shè zhě hū? Shù mù ér tú zhī, shǔ chuān qíjiān, kū xué tuō qízhōng. Xūn zhī, zé kǒng fén mù, guàn zhī, zé kǒng tú yǐ. Cǐ shèshǔ zhīsuǒyǐ bùdé yě.

     Your Highness must have seen people building a shrine. They set up the beams and then plaster them. Yet rats gnaw holes through the plaster and shelter themselves inside. Then, if you smoke them out, you are afraid you might burn the wood; if you pour water over them, you are afraid the plaster might crumble. This is the reason why the shrine rats cannot be caught.
