Description
English: The statue of the snake eating his own tail at the field near Lê Văn Thịnh's shrine. It was detected by some farmers about 1960s and protected at the shrine but be extraneous to Lê Văn Thịnh.
There are two shrines in Thuận Thành and Gia Bình dedicated to Lê Văn Thịnh. In the latter is preserved a strange statue in stone which can be understood as a symbol of Lê Văn Thịnh, the victim of an injustice. The statue describes an animal that is a dragon eating its own tail with an utmost painful expression. It was discovered in the early 1990s buried under the soil of Bảo Tháp, a hamlet in Lê Văn Thịnh's native village Đông Cứu. The statue was carved with sophisticated patterns which are unseen-of in the history of Vietnamese art. With its mystic form and the symbol of Lê Văn Thịnh's fate, the statue was brought into the shrine of Lê Văn Thịnh to co-worship with the former chancellor with the respectful name "Ông Rồng" (His Dragon).
Tiếng Việt: Tượng mãng xà cắn đuôi ở cánh đồng gần đền thái sư Lê Văn Thịnh, được phát hiện hồi thập niên 1960 và được đưa vào đền bảo quản đến nay, tuy nhiên tượng này không liên hệ gì với nhân vật Lê Văn Thịnh.
