Bright and clear

have a sharp sense of honour(ready to die to preserve her chastity)

wet one's pants in terror

have a calm and quiet mind(peace of mind)

A student's long years of academic studies

venomous heart(as fierce as the mouth of a snake or the sting of a bee)

reading aloud in a clear voice

the door of virtues is hard to open

drift along with the world

win promotion and get rich(be out for power and money)

suck the ulcers and piles of another person

rise like the phoenix

a lot of work and scanty meals

Loose horses and cattle

live in extreme luxury

dying(with only a little breath still left in the body; more dead than alive)

show the highest respect to somebody

be born under an evil star(be out of luck)

The valleys echo the sounds of the mountains.

lose one's soul
