    陈子昂

    登幽州台歌

    前不见古人，后不见来者；

    念天地之悠悠，独怆然而涕下。

    七言古诗

    李颀

    古意

    男儿事长征，少小幽燕客，

    赌胜马蹄下，由来轻七尺；

    杀人莫敢前，须如蝟毛磔。

    黄云陇底白雪飞，未得报恩不能归。

    辽东小妇年十五，惯弹琵琶解歌舞，

    今为羌笛出塞声，使我三军泪如雨。

    七言古诗

    李颀

    送陈章甫

    四月南风大麦黄，枣花未落桐叶长。

    青山朝别暮还见，嘶马出门思故乡。

    陈侯立身何坦荡？虬须虎眉仍大颡。

    腹中贮书一万卷，不肯低头在草莽。

    东门酤酒饮我曹，心轻万事皆鸿毛，

    醉卧不知白日暮，有时空望孤云高。

    长河浪头连天黑，津口停舟渡不得；

    郑国游人未及家，洛阳行子空叹息。

    闻道故林相识多，罢官昨日今如何。
