Furthermore, the Han-shih wai-chuan, or Han's Commentary [on the Book of Songs], records that the rooster possesses five virtues: "Cultured for the crest on its head; martial for the spurs on its legs; brave for advancing on the enemy in front of it; considerate for telling others when it has found food; and trustworthy for punctually keeping watch through the night."
