《徐霞客游记·黔游日记六》
我一向的愿望是向北方眺望一次盘江流来的地方，可常常被山峰遮住，来到此地刚好登上了朝北的山岭，却又被雾遮住了，大自然的根由，它不容许人们窥测竟然如此！
予夙愿一北眺盘江从来处，而每为峰掩，至是适登北岭，而又为雾掩，造化根株，其不容人窥测如此！
I have always wanted to look to the north to where the Pan River flows, but it is often blocked by the mountain peaks, I just climbed up to this place and saw the mountain ridge facing north, but it was covered by fog. Nature does not allow people to spy on it!
