A Further Collection of Chinese Lyrics: Rendered into Verse by Alan Ayling from translations of the Chinese by Duncan Mackintosh in collaboration with Ch''eng Hsi and T''ung Ping-Cheng

This book, first published in 1969, builds on the authors first selection and contains a selection of Chinese lyrics (tzu) mainly from Sung Dynasty poets who made this verse-form lastingly popular. Two of these poets, Su Shih and Hsin Chi Chi, add a fresh and robust note to the traditional theme of nostalgia and separation. As in the previous volume, the Chinese original, written with a scholars brush, faces the English translation.
