Yue Lao lots
A folk collection of fortune-stick poems named after Yue Lao, the old man under the moon of matchmaking legend; this site only explains the text. Some lots are lines of verse, but most quote short passages from classics such as the Book of Songs, the Analects and Mencius. The traditional set has 101 lots (including a 'king lot'); this library covers lots 1–100.
All Yue Lao lots verses in order. Open any lot to see its painting, grade and three questions.
