The poet Po Yin Ci once composed a rhyme :
“Terlena oleh sex dan nafsu, menyebabkan bencana,
"Lulled by sex and lust, cause disaster,
Kehilangan jabatan dan kemewahan yang tersedia,
Losing position and the luxuries that was available,
Setelah di-teliti baru-lah tahu, berzinah penyebab-nya,
After being investigated, I found out that the cause was because the adultery,
Neraka Api kembali menjadi kampung halaman-nya.”
