By the way , who is Yuan Haowen ?
Jin official, who turned his talents to poetry and writing a history of the Jins after his employers got nixed by the Mongols. As a 16 year old in 1206, he wrote a poem that's at the centre of ROCH.
O mortals, what is love? That binds beyond life on earth?
To all corners, in pair we fly... braving summer and winter, by and by...
Union is bliss, parting is woe, agony is boundless, for a lovelorn soul,
sweetheart...
Give me word, trail of clouds drifting forward...
And mountains capped with snow, whither shall my lonesome shadow go?
Li Mochou died around 1243 (16 years before 1259), so Yuan Haowen would have been 53 and still alive at that time (he died in 1257).
