Introduction to Zheng Wind(郑风) is till 7:55, then followed by this poem, the first poem in Zheng Wind. The black suit could be an official attire for a senor officer. This poem is about the love between a wife and a husbund, a diligent civil servant is reflected as well.
An arguement is raised against characters 宜，好，席，之, with such, this poem is full of fresh details of daily life rather then a simple straightforward desciption of the black suit, thus the deep and tender love is visualized.
