《陈书·列传·卷十九》
当时兴皇寺朗法师对佛学了解全面精通佛典，孙场每次造访他讲经之处，与他讨论经义时有争论，僧侣们对他没有不仰慕敬服的。
时兴皇寺朗法师该通释典，瑒每造讲筵，时有抗论，法侣莫不倾心。
At the time, Abbot Lang of Xinghuang Temple was universally acknowledged as an expert on Buddhism and very familiar with the Buddhist scriptures. Every time Sun Yang visited him to hear him expound the sutras he would take part in discussions on the meaning of the scriptures, and there was not a monk who did not look up to him with admiration and respect.
