Preface
Chapter 54:
Lady Jia ridicules the cliches of romantic fiction; And Wang Xi-feng

Chapter 55:
A foolish concubine seeks to humiliate her own daughter; And an ill-natured
stewardess tries to outwit her young mistress

Resourceful Tan-chun abolilshes abuses in the interests of econoomy; And
sapient Bao-chai shows how small consessions can be made without loss of
dignity
Chapter 57:
Nightengale tests Jade Boy with a startling message; And Aunt Xue comforts
Frowner with words of loving kindness
Chapter 58:
In which the cock-bird who mourns his mate is found to be a hen; And a true
heart is able to sympathize with a strange kind of love
Chapter 59:
By Willow Walk the conververs of property resort to violence and abuse; And
at Green Delights the defenders of law and order invoke a higher authority
Chapter 60:
As a substiture for rose-orris Jia Huan is given jasmine face-powder; And
in return for rose essence Cook Liu is given lycoperdon snow
Chapter 61:
Bao-yu owns up to a crime he did not commit; And Patience bends authority
in order that the innocent may be spared
Chapter 62:
A tipsy Xiang-yun sleeps on a peony-petal pillow; And a grateful Caltrop
unfastens her pomegranate skirt
Chapter 63:

copes with funeral arrangments single-handed
Chapter 64:
Five fair women make subjects for a chaste maid's verse; And nine jade
dragons make a love-gift for a flirt
Chapter 65:
Jia Lian's second marriage is celebrated in secret; And the future marriage
of San-jie becomes a matter of speculation
Chapter 66:
Shame drives a warm-hearted young woman to take her life; And shock leads a
cold-hearted young gentleman to renounce the world
Chapter 67:
Frowner sees something that makes her homesick; And Xi-feng hears something
that rouses her suspicions
Chapter 68:
Er-jie takes up residence in Prospect Garden; And Xi-feng makes a
