"DOU E:Take pity on one who is dying an unjust death;

Take pity on one whose head will be struck from her body;

Take pity on one who has worked with you in your home;

Take pity on one who has neither mother nor father;

Take pity on one who has served you all these years;

And at festivals offer my spirit a bowl of cold gruel.

MRS. CAI (weeping):
Don't worry. Ah, this will be the death of me!

DOU E:

Burn some paper coins to my headless corpse,

For the sake of your dead son.

We wail and complain to Heaven:

There is no justice! Dou E is wrongly slain! show less
