Candles are snuffed out for this place in a poem whose speaker despairs how cupping this place leaves a message that cannot be sent. Changes to this place are compared to “sorrow, joy, separation and reunion” in a poem that was written while the poet was drinking and thinking about his brother. A question about this place opens that “water melody,” which was written in a style meant to be sung. In another poem, a woman stares at this place while waiting on the jade steps. In one poem, this place makes friends with the speaker and his shadow while they sing and dance together. After looking at this place, the speaker bows his head and thinks of his homeland in the poem “Quiet Night Thoughts.” For 10 points, according to legend, Li Bai died trying to embrace the reflection of what place? ■END■
