《宋书·志·卷十九》
据服虔注《传》说： 天子乐舞八八六十四人，诸侯乐舞六八四十八人，大夫乐舞四八三十二人，士乐舞二八十六人，这一解释很是允当。
按服虔注《传》云： 天子八八，诸侯六八，大夫四八，士二八。 其义甚允。
According to Fou Qien's commentary, "Records": The emperor's music and dance include 8864 people, while the feudal lords' include 6848 people. The chief of officials' include 4832 people, and the literati's include 2816 people. This explication is very appropriate.
