Zhongzi, Please Within the poem “Zhongzi, Please”, the teachings of Confucius are evident. The aspects of veneration and submission are strengthened many times throughout the poem through repetition. This can been noticed through the depiction of the female’s response to her paramour. It was thought to be a sign of respect to use the word “please” and was used in the poem several times.

One of Mr. Bostwicks many mantras he has us memorize is something I think really helps me and it goes a little something like this “ words make up phrases and clauses, phrases and clauses makes sentences, sentences makes paragraphs, and paragraphs makes composition.” Altogether I give mister Bostwick my SEAL of approval.
