《梁书·列传·卷十一》
僧珍对他们说： 我身负皇上隆恩，祇怕无法报效国家，你们自有本分，怎可妄求非分之职，还是赶快回到葱铺去吧。 
僧珍曰： 吾荷国重恩，无以报效，汝等自有常分，岂可妄求叨越，但当速反葱肆耳。 
Sengzhen said to them: I am deeply grateful for the emperor's kindness and I am afraid that I will not be able to repay my country. You have your own duties, how can you seek an undue position? You should go back to the scallion shop as soon as possible.
