Third, according to tradition, the literary predecessors to "Fu on a Grisette" all associate the primary male voice in the poems with that of their authors; though the text of "Fu on a Grisette" never mentions Cai Yong’s name, it is likely that the male persona is the poet’s own voice.
The second half of "Fu on a Grisette" is partly narrative and partly descriptive of the emotions of the maidservant and the male voice.
