田叔不言梁事，袁絲諫止淮南，以兩國舋禍，尚回帝意，豈非親親之義，寧從敦厚。 Tian Shu held his tongue on the affair of Liang; Yuan Si admonished the emperor and stayed the revolt of Huainan; though both realms had courted disaster, they still turned the emperor's heart—was this not the spirit of cherishing one's kin and choosing clemency over severity?
