《太平广记·卷二百六十六·轻薄二》
刘诜没有什么才气和名望，特别喜好喝酒，嘴上虽答应了接受任命，但一点没有启程的意思，每天仍然在高家，情谊不减，那是由于美酒肥肉的吸引。
刘诜无他才望，性嗜酒，口受新命，殊无行意，日于高氏，情敬不衰，然则美酝肥羜之所引也。
Liu Shen did not have much talent or reputation, and he especially loved to drink. Although he had agreed to accept the appointment, he did not show any intention of starting the journey and still remained in the Marquis of Gao's home every day. His friendship had not decreased, because he was drawn to the fine food and drinks.
