Cast Pearls Before Swine

Gong Mingyi was a famous musician in ancient times, who played the lute very well.

lute:鲁特琴,最早见于九世纪的记载，由阿拉伯征服者带入西班牙，但是直到文艺复兴它才变得受欢迎起来。此处为翻译对等。

One day, while playing the lute indoors, Gong Mingyi saw a cow eating grass leisurely outside the window. He had a sudden whim to play some melodies for the cow. He first played the Exercise of Qing Jiao, but the cow still kept on eating grass with head lowered. He seemed to realize that the melody was too highbrow for the cow to understand.

whim: n.一时兴致；突发奇想；心血来潮;（旧时提升矿石或水用的）绞绳滚筒，绞盘;

Exercise of Qing Jiao:清角之操，一首高雅的古琴曲名。

highbrow :adj.高深难懂的；高雅的；学术性的;文化修养高的；品位高雅的；对高深学问感兴趣的;n.修养高者；品位高雅者

　　So he played several other melodies, imitating the buzzing sounds of swarms of flying mosquitoes, and the bleats of a calf looking for its companions. At this, to his surprise, the cow stopped eating grass, but raised its head, pricked up its ears, wagged its tail and, pacing up and down in small steps, began to listen attentively.
