- Inscribed
- Inscription: River Village in High Summer. New rain has soaked the rustic bridge, The summer trees cast abundant shade. One wants to go among them and find a cool spot, From time to time one laughs, one's hair disheveled. The moon shines over the vast empty lake, The wind blows through the lonely trees. These add completely to one's secret enjoyment, Streams and mountains accord with this mind. Yunping Kun. Seal: r/r "Dakun"
