Inscription Translation

Leaf 11. Mt. Daochang: From the prefectural city toward the south, about 5, 6 li, there is the spiritual abode of the Chan Master Fuhu [master who tamed tigers, or Zhifeng 志逢, 909–985]. Up above [on the hill] are the Fuhu and Wanghu Pavilions. Looking toward the south, one can see the mountains in Hangzhou. Looking toward the north, one can see all the way to the Lake Tai and also its hilly islands. Looking down, the city walls are laid before us, with towers and terraces, as splendid as in a painting.
