Farewell to Jin'er

1. First read the whole poem twice without consulting materials, noting first impressions and questions.
2. Using the time and place clues in the title, imagine the scene of leaving the capital after passing the examination and the farewell in Shu.
3. Read it against other poems by Han Wo to feel the different brushwork of his "fragrant boudoir" style and his poems of felt experience.
4. Read it aloud, attending to the rhythm and rhyme changes of the five- or seven-character lines.
