僧虔報書曰：「征北板比歲處遇小優，殷主簿從此府入崇禮，何儀曹卽代殷，亦不見訴爲苦。 Sengqian wrote back: "In recent years the Pacify-the-North staff has been treated somewhat more generously. Registrar Yin left this office for Chongli, and Master of Ceremony He replaced him at once — yet Yin never complained that he had suffered.

殷、何二生，或是府主情味，或是朝廷意旨，豈與悠悠之人同口而語。 Yin and He may answer to the prince's fancy or the court's will — how can they be named in the same breath as men like me?
