This paper was written in search for the true classical scholar whom Nammyong think is preferable. In accordance with the method of the Text-linguistics, described cohesion, the author analyzed the situationality, intertextuality, and informativity which were shown in Nammyong's poems, and the results were classified into ① situation analysis, ② coherence, ③ the diagram of the synthetical structure, and ④ translation of the poems.
The contents were arranged into two parts : ① the desertion of human desires and ② the harmony with the nature and the pleasure of hermit life. The poems and the analysed contents were like these:
The themes of 'the desertion of human desires' and 'the harmony with the nature and the pleasure of hermit life' are different, but they are of the same category. This is because the heavenly morals is conserved when the human desires are abandoned, and the harmony with the nature and the pleasure of human morality can be obtained when the heavenly morals are conserved.
Nammyong worried for the classical scholars not to cut off the human desires and to flatter themselves in search for the bureaucratic office. He said, if he became dirty because of the human desires, "He would instantly cut open the stomach, take out the dirty things, and flow down them into the river." And also he tried to put these beliefs into practice. He always carried with himself the letters of ‘Piety(敬) and Righteousness(義)', and tried to be pious internally and to be righteous externally. And so Nammyong could succeed in obtaining the harmony with the nature, and could enjoy the pleasure of hermit life.
