In the middle of the eighth month, more than ten thousand sparrows gathered at Huailing. At first they cried with great sorrow; then they fell into a wild struggle, killing one another. All were left with their heads severed, hanging from tree branches and thorn bushes. In the sixth year, Emperor Ling died. Now, a mausoleum is a symbol of height and grandeur; and the sparrow, que, signifies noble rank, jue. Heaven’s warning seemed to say: “Those who hold rank and receive stipends, enjoying honor and abundance, will turn upon one another and bring about their own destruction.”
