以古之王侯大人，或以此延四方之士，甚美者則有輻湊燕路，慕君王之義，驤鑣魏闕，高公子之仁，繼有追申、白而入楚，羨鄒枚而遊梁，吾非敢叨夫曩賢，庶欲從九九之遺蹤。 Ancient kings, marquises, and great men sometimes used this means to draw scholars from all directions: the finest would gather like spokes on the road to Yan, drawn by a lord's righteousness and prancing their steeds to the Wei Gate; they would honor a prince's benevolence, and in succession men followed Shen and Bai into Chu and envied Zou and Mei in traveling to Liang. I do not dare claim those former worthies; I merely wish to follow their lingering example.
