"The Story of the Stone" (c. 1760), also known as "The Dream of the Red Chamber", is one of the greatest novels of Chinese literature. The fifth part of Cao Xueqin's magnificent saga, "The Dreamer Awakes", was carefully edited and completed by Gao E some decades later. It continues the story of the changing fortunes of the Jia dynasty, focussing on Bao-yu, now married to Bao-chai, after the tragic death of his beloved Dai-yu. Against such worldly elements as death, financial ruin, marriage, decadence and corruption, his karmic journey unfolds. Like a sleepwalker through life, Bao-yu is finally awakened by a vision, which reveals to him that life itself is merely a dream, 'as moonlight mirrored in the water'.

- "说些春风秋月，粉淡脂红，然后又说到女儿如何好。----不觉又说到女儿死的头上。袭人忙掩住口。 霍译 the beauties of Nature, the beauties of girls, girls. But somehow from there the conversation imperceptibly found its way round to the subject of girls dying. Suddenly realizing this, Aroma—it was she who was talking at the time— broke off in alarm. "
- "文死谏，武死战。 霍译 “a scholar dies protesting and a soldier dies fighting” 杨译 ministers who die for remonstrating with the Emperor and generals who die in battle win immortal fame as fine"
