散騎常侍、使持節、都督會稽等十郡諸軍事、宣毅將軍、會稽太守長城縣侯蒨，學尚清優，神宇凝正，文參禮樂，武定妖氛，心力謀猷，為家治國，擁旄作守，期月有成，辟彼關河，[9]功踰蕭、寇，萑蒲之盜，自反耕農，篁竹之豪，用稟聲朔。 Scattered-cavalry palace attendant, bearer of the staff, commander-in-chief of Kuaiji and ten commanderies, general who proclaims martial valor, and Kuaiji administrator Marquis Qian of Changcheng—his learning is pure and refined, his bearing grave and correct. In civil affairs he upholds ritual and music; in war he quells rebellion. With heart and stratagem he has ordered home and state alike. As territorial defender, within a month he brought order. On the frontier passes [9] his merit outdid Xiao He and Kou Xun; marsh bandits returned to the plow; mountain lords accepted Our calendar.
