BAISAÕ(1675-1763), THE OLD TEA-SELLER

Baisaõ presents himself
as a humble monk gone
wayward and poor, living
on the proceeds of his
tea-selling, yet tells us
how he only sells
the finest brands of tea,
brewing them with
the best possible set,
the one he would destroy
to avoid such fine items
to be despoiled by
unworthy hands.
