Tang Yin perfected an admirable hand in the running script（行书）.His poems（12）　 　 on themes（13）　 　 people like Wen Zhengming or the older Shen Zhou would have never taken up.Sometimes he was（14）　 　 by tragic sorrow for the loss of childlike innocence；other times even love was concerned with ruin and unhappiness.Those poems which do manage to begin on an optimistic note and often（15）　 　 on a note of regret.
