What is the previous line before "White Dew turns into Frost"?

The reeds are lush and green
The original verse is “The reeds are lush and green, White Dew turns into Frost”. It means: The reeds by the river are green and thick, and the autumn deep dew turns into frost. This line comes from the poem "Reeds" in the "National Odes" section of the ancient Chinese realistic poetry collection "Shijing" (Book of Songs).
Original Poem:
"Reeds" - Anonymous, Pre-Qin Dynasty
The reeds are lush and green, White Dew turns into Frost. The person I long for is across the river.
I follow upstream, but the way is long and hard. I follow downstream, but she seems to be in the middle of the river.
The reeds are lush and green, the White Dew has not yet dried. The person I long for is by the water's edge.
I follow upstream, but the way is steep and difficult. I follow downstream, but she seems to be on the island in the water.
The reeds are dense and full, the White Dew has not yet disappeared. The person I long for is at the end of the river.
I follow upstream, but the way is winding and narrow. I follow downstream, but she seems to be on the shore of the water.

In which position is the White Dew among the 24 solar terms?

White Dew is the fifteenth solar term among the "24 Solar Terms", marking the end of the Shen month and the beginning of the You month in the traditional Chinese calendar.
After the White Dew solar term, the autumn wind cools down the temperature while also drying the moisture in the air. This dry climate characteristic is called "autumn dryness" in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Many people may experience symptoms such as dry mouth, dry throat, dry eyes, and dry skin. The climate feature of the White Dew is dryness. The "dew" in White Dew is a natural phenomenon. At this point in the season, the daytime sun is still warm, and water vapor evaporates. When the sun sets, the temperature drops quickly, and the water vapor in the air condenses into small droplets during the night, densely attaching to the green stems and leaves or petals of plants and trees. By the time of White Dew, it is truly entering a cool period, and "the heat of summer has basically ended". Once entering the White Dew period, there is a significant difference between day and night temperatures. At night, you will feel a slight chill, clearly indicating that the cool autumn has arrived.
