A number of teapots and tea-trays dated to the Jiaqing period also contain this poem which has been translated by S. W. Bushell (Oriental Ceramic Art, London, 1981, p. 239) as:
Finest tribute tea of the first picking
And a bright full moon prompt a line of verse.
A lively fire glows in the bamboo stove,
The water is boiling in the stone griddle,
Small bubbles rise like ears of fish or crab.
Or rare Ch'i-ch'iang tea, rolled in tiny balls,
One cup is enough to lighten the heart,
And dissipate the early winter chill.
