與包世臣、李兆洛遊，能文，工書。 He associated with Bao Shichen and Li Zhaoluo, wrote well, and was accomplished in calligraphy.

世臣取其說。 Bao Shichen adopted this doctrine.

熙載為諸生，博學多能，從包世臣學書。 Xizai was a licentiate, broadly learned and accomplished in many arts, and studied calligraphy under Bao Shichen.

世臣創明北朝書派，溯源窮流，為一家之學。 Shichen clarified the Northern Dynasties calligraphic school, tracing its sources to their limits and founding a school of his own.

熙載恪守師法，世臣真、行、藁草無不工，嗜篆、分而未致力，熙載篆、分功力尤深。 Xizai adhered strictly to his teacher's method; Shichen excelled in regular, running, and draft-cursive script but, though fond of seal and clerical script, had not devoted himself to them—whereas Xizai's mastery of seal and clerical script was especially profound.

與熙載同受包氏法者，江都梅植之蘊生，甘泉楊亮季子，高涼黃洵修存，餘姚毛長齡仰蘇，旌德姚配中仲虞，松桃楊承汪挹之。 Others who studied under the Bao school alongside Xizai included Mei Zhizhi Yunsheng of Jiangdu, Yang Liang Jizi of Ganquan, Huang Xun Xiucun of Gaoliang, Mao Changling Yangsu of Yuyao, Yao Peizhong Zhongyu of Jingde, and Yang Chengwang Yizhi of Songtao.

通經，以詩鳴，世臣尤稱其書。 He was versed in the classics, won fame as a poet, and Shichen especially praised his calligraphy.

畢生守師法，最為包門老弟子。 He observed his teacher's method to the end of his life and was the senior surviving disciple of the Bao school.
