In time his son succeeded him,
And so from son to
UGGs Clearance son
The lordship passed, held firm until
Four hundred years had run.
Then dawned a day of weaklier sons,
The fiery virtue failed,
Then ministers betrayed their trust,
Court intrigues vile prevailed.
The omens came; a serpent
Coiled on the dragon throne,
While in the hall of audience
Unholy haloes shone.
Now bandits swarm in all the land
And noble strives with chief,
The common people,
UGG Boots Clearance sore perplexed,
Can nowhere find relief.
Let's drown our sorrows in the cup,
Be happy while we may,
Let those who wish run after fame
That is to last for aye.

Liu Bei saluted them and said, "Which of you is Master Sleeping Dragon?"
"Who are you, Sir?" asked the long-bearded one. "What business
Nike high heels have you with Sleeping Dragon?"
"I am Liu Bei. I want to inquire of him on how to restore tranquillity to the world."
"Well, neither of us is your man, but we are friends of his. My name is Shi Guangyuan and my friend here is Meng Gongwei."
"I know you both by
UGG Boots Discount reputation," said Liu Bei gladly. "I am indeed fortunate to meet you in this haphazard way. Will you not come to Sleeping Dragon's retreat and talk for a time? I have horses here for you."
"We idle folks of the wilds know nothing of tranquilizing states. Please do not trouble to ask. Pray
UGGS Clearance mount again and continue searching Sleeping Dragon."
So he remounted and went his way. He reached the little cottage, dismounted, and tapped at the door. The same lad answered his knock, and he asked whether the Master had returned.
