Eating Grapes
1Jiso (Lineage of So) among the tribes of the Baekso (White So) tribe, together with others, went to the well to drink milk.
2There were many people but the well was small.
3She, yielding to many others, couldn’t drink herself. That happened five times.
4Upon returning home, she climbed the tower.
5Hunger deluded her and she collapsed in dizziness.
6Faint echoes heard in her ears.
7Jiso tasted the five-tastes by swallowing grapes that were lushly railing the tower.
8She rose and jumped in euphoria. 9That was due to its poisonous power.
10Descending the tower rail, she pranced and sang,
11How vast and wide the Heaven-Earth is!
12My gi surpasses the yoke.
13What way could this be?
14It is the power of the fruits of grapes.
15All people doubted her.
16Jiso told them that it was truly beautiful.
17People found it odd and ate them. 18It was like her words.
19Thereupon, there were many from all tribes who ate grapes.
