Anon.
In the year 1690 A.D. a report of Hyang-Nang’s tragic death was made to the king by the magistrate of the district. A gate of honor was then erected to her memory. The master scholar of the period was ordered to inscribe a verse thereon.
Only the gentle breezes of the spring
Caress her little pair of lonely shoes.
Where are you now, O sad and fragrant flower?
It is too late to make a song for you.
Not all the singing of a hundred years
Could bear away the loneliness you knew
In one uncounted hour of falling tears!
