秦瀛，字凌滄，江蘇無錫人，諭德松齡玄孫也。 Qin Ying, whose style was Lingcang, came from Wuxi in Jiangsu and was a great-great-grandson of the tutor Songling.

寧、紹、台三府水災，有司匿不報，瀛力言於巡撫，乃得賑。 When Ningbo, Shaoxing, and Taizhou were flooded, officials concealed the disaster; Ying pressed the governor until relief was granted.

調湖南，衡州歲歉，有司匿不報，方議派濟陝西兵米，瀛复力言於巡撫，留米平糶。 Transferred to Hunan, he found Hengzhou suffering famine that officials again concealed while grain was earmarked for Shaanxi troops; Ying again pressed the governor, and the grain was kept for fair-price sale to the people.

詔整頓倉場，慮瀛齒衰，以二品頂戴調左副都御史。 When the throne ordered the granary yards reorganized, fearing Ying's age he was transferred to vice censor-in-chief on the left with second-rank insignia.

瀛治獄平慎，在浙辨定海難民十二人非盜。 Ying judged cases with fairness and care; in Zhejiang he cleared twelve Dinghai refugees wrongly accused as bandits.

瀛工文章，與姚鼐相推重，體亦相近雲。 Ying excelled at prose and held Yao Nai in mutual esteem; their styles were much alike.

秦瀛之治績，李宗瀚之孝行，非僅以文藻稱。 Qin Ying's record in office and Li Zonghan's filial devotion were honored for more than literary talent alone.
