The second line:
    The pit has dangers. 
Inquiries get little.  
  
    The third line:
    Drumbeats come: stuck in danger. 
Entering the underground vault 
will be of no use.  
  
    The fourth line:
    A bottle of wine, a bamboo basket, 
and two earthenware vessels offered simply 
through a window. In the end, no fault.  
  
    The fifth line:
    The pit is not yet flooded to the brim. 
No fault.  
  
    The sixth line:
    Tied and entangled. Thrown in brambles. 
For three years, nothing can be won. 
Misfortune.
