The Journey To The West, Revised Edition, Volume 2 - Plot & Excerpts
We were telling you about the Tang Monk, who acquired again the service of Pilgrim Sun; master and disciples thereupon embarked on the road to the West, united once more in heart and mind. After they had rescued the princess of the Precious Image Kingdom and been sent off by its king and officials, they journeyed without ceasing, taking food and drink when they hungered and thirsted, resting by night and traveling by day. Soon it was again the time of Triple Spring, a season when Light breezes blow on willow green as silk, A lovely scene most fit for verse. The times hasten bird songs; The warmth kindles flowers, Fragrant blooms all around. A pair of swallows comes to the apple court,1 Just in time to enjoy spring: Red dust on purple paths,2 Strings, pipes, and the silk gowns, Games and passing the wine cups.3 As master and disciples walked and enjoyed the scenery, they found another mountain barring their way.
