題識:

有客送我蓮,索沃蓮花詩。

蓮子心中苦,不能成一詞。

況在淤泥中,藕斷徒連絲,

絲絲心緒亂,不與荷葉知,

荷葉本青錢,弱小抱萍眠。

一朝錢發達,高蓋青可憐。

爾能弄權柄,翻覆水中天。

昨日傷其手,芒刺紛吾前。

大葉田田,小葉圓圓,大葉不減,

小葉不詳。既不能金盤承露飲鴛鴦,

亦不能碧筒彎象鼻,使人清肺腸。

徒借疾風猛雨聲勢狂,拂尽紅妝落水旁。白帚青時殺妖草,轉眼枯荷成骨殭。長槍短镞無鋒芒。蓮心苦,蓮葉揚,蓮根潔,蓮蕊香,蓮子蓮根生意長,別開藕空發奇光,開花要擇好池塘。餘客山東滕縣已然兩歲,無端胃中憲所詬,筆墨口口以致疾風驟雨,勢不能支,適有送荷花在拜,索餘畫因有感而賦。乾隆十一年秋八月。寫於昇仙浮沤館,复堂懊道人李鱓。

鈐印:「复堂」、「鱓印」
