《徐霞客游记·黔游日记六》
那人进洞后在石缝间汲水，随处都是水，都是从洞顶涂涂散在空中落下来的水，当地人在岩石上略凿成石坑来接水。
其人入汲于石隙间，随处而是，皆自洞顶淙淙散空下坠，土人少凿坯承之。
After entering the cave, the man fetched water from the crevices in the stones, and the water was everywhere, all of which came from the water that was smeared and scattered in the air from the top of the cave and fell down. The local people carved a few stone pits in the rock to catch the water.
