Before, there was Ding You [2]. Second, we went to the West Lake, such as Yongjinmen, Shanglou Wailou, Qiou Residence, Qian, Yu's villa and Yu's garden, leaving only ruins. It is the owner of Yumeng, and the West Lake has nothing. Look at the broken bridge, the old karaoke bars and dance pavilions are weak, and there will be no one when they are flooded. I left in a hurry and said that I had come to the West Lake. If you see this today, you will lose the West Lake in your dream.
Because the jade dream I want is different from what Li worships, I worship Tianmu [3], such as a goddess named Shu, whose dream is invisible and illusory. The dream of the West Lake is also like a family member, whose dream is there and whose dream is real. I have lived in his house for 22 years, and my dream is still in my former residence. The old service stream [5] is bald now, and the dream is still the total angle [6]. The habit of appointment and dismissal has never been removed, so it is difficult to get rid of the state. From time to time, I was silent at the Butterfly Temple [7] and dumbfounded at Xu [8], but my dream was to protect the scenery of the West Lake, but I still didn't move. Second, Cao heckled, occasionally talking, always talking in his sleep, or talking in his sleep [9].
Yu Youshan, which belongs to the sea, is known as the beauty of marine faults [10], and villagers are scrambling to lick their eyes [1 1]. Hey, hey! Jinyi Yaozhu [12], if the tongue is empty, how can you lick your eyes to save greed? Seventy-two pieces of "Seeking Dreams" are left as shadows of the West Lake for the afterlife.

This article is selected from the first volume of Tianku Anthology, and there is a passage at the end, which is slightly different from the preface of West Lake Dream. According to its sequence, this article was written in July191year, that is, July/6 of the tenth year of Kangxi (1671). Zhang Dai lived in Hangzhou for many years. "Away from Shan Ye" after the death of the Ming Dynasty, the beauty of the West Lake haunted his dreams every day. So, he went to the West Lake twice, but he didn't expect that "the owner in the dream is nothing to the West Lake". When he was lost and sighed, he could only comfort himself with "protecting the West Lake in my dream" and wrote "Dream of the West Lake" to save "the shadow of the West Lake" for future generations. This paper expounds the reasons for the creation of Dream of the West Lake, and expresses the author's homesickness for his homeland after his national subjugation. When the author wrote this article, he was over 70 years old, and a sense of emptiness and desolation was beyond words.
