列傳第十五臧燾徐廣傅隆 Biography 15 — Zang Dao, Xu Guang, and Fu Long

傅隆，字伯祚，北地靈州人也。 Fu Long, whose courtesy name was Bozuo, came from Lingzhou in Beidi.

隆少孤，又無近屬，單貧有學行，不好交遊。 Long was orphaned in youth, had no close relatives, and though poor possessed learning and integrity; he cared little for socializing.

尚書僕射、丹陽尹徐羨之置建威府，以為錄事參軍，尋轉尚書祠部郎、丹陽丞，入為尚書左丞。 Xu Xianzhi, Vice Minister of Works and governor of Danyang, established an Establishing Might headquarters and appointed Long recorder-aide; he was soon transferred to Director of the Sacrifices Bureau and assistant governor of Danyang, then entered the Secretariat as Left Assistant Director.

以族弟亮為僕射，緦服不得相臨，徙太子率更令，廬陵王義真車騎諮議參軍，出補山陰令。 Because his clansman Liang became Vice Minister, ritual mourning rules forbade them from serving together; Long was transferred to Commandant of the Heir Apparent's Rate Regulation, then advisory aide on Prince Yizhen of Luling's staff, and finally went out to serve as magistrate of Shanyin.

隆議之曰：「原夫禮律之興，蓋本之自然，求之情理，非從天墮，非從地出也。 Long submitted a deliberation: "Ritual and law arise from what is natural and seek what accords with reason — they did not fall from Heaven or spring from Earth.

十四年，太祖以新撰《禮論》付隆使下意，隆上表曰：「臣以下愚，不涉師訓，孤陋閭閻，面牆靡識，謬蒙詢逮，愧懼流汗。 In the fourteenth year Emperor Taizu entrusted Long with the newly compiled Discourses on Rites to obtain his views; Long submitted a memorial: "I am lowly and unlearned, without teachers' guidance, ignorant and obscure; wrongly called upon for your inquiry, I am ashamed and fearful beyond measure.

臧燾、徐廣、傅隆、裴松之、何承天、雷次宗，並服膺聖哲，不為雅俗推移，立名於世，宜矣。 Zang Dao, Xu Guang, Fu Long, Pei Songzhi, He Chengtian, and Lei Cizong all devoted themselves to the sages, were not swayed by fashion, and won renown in their age — as was only fitting.
