暹少為書生，避地渤海，依高乾，以妹妻乾弟慎。 In youth Xian was a student; he fled to Bohai and attached himself to Gao Gan, giving his sister in marriage to Gan's brother Shen.

慎後臨光州，啟暹為長史。 When Shen later governed Guangzhou, he had Xian appointed chief clerk.

高慎之叛，與暹有隙，高祖欲殺之，世宗救免。 When Gao Shen rebelled, having a rift with Xian, Gao Huan wished to kill him; Gao Cheng rescued and pardoned him.

咸陽王、司馬令並是吾對門布衣之舊，尊貴親昵，無過二人，同時獲罪，吾不能救，諸君其慎之。」 Prince of Xianyang and Minister Sima were both my old companions of common cloth opposite the gate, honored and intimate beyond all others; at the same time they incurred guilt—I could not save them; gentlemen, be wary."

昂素勤慎，奉勑之後，彌自警勗，部分科條，校正今古，所增損十有七八。 Ang had always been diligent and careful. After the order he redoubled his watch on himself, set out the legal articles, and collated past and present usage — his additions and cuts came to seven or eight parts in ten.
