The cut verse, ci and sanqu are the three categories of the Chinese metric verse; this anthology includes three hundred verses, one hundred for each of the three categories.

The verses are based on Chinese culture in general, and the author’s personal life in particular. All the verses are written in Chinese, but all have English translations, in some cases with notes. The anthology is designed for readers interested in the Chinese verse, or Chinese culture at large, for those who are engaged in Chinese studies, and for Chinese courses, symposiums and libraries.
