And having dreamed that he was a bird, a bee, and a butterfly,
He was uncertain why he should try to feel like anything else,
Hence his contentment.

did he dream he was all those creatures at once? or seperately?
It’s a chinese poem. So-shu probably had some opium in his system at the time, so could have been all three.
