《后汉书·列传·酷吏列传》
那些用大吞小的，跨越邦邑，矫健桀骜的就在乡里称王称霸，州郡守宰辖地辽阔，户口又多。
其并兼者则陵横邦邑，桀健者则雄张闾里。且宰守旷远，户口殷大。
Those who swallowed small ones, crossed borders, acted fiercely and arrogantly took over the countryside and became kings and overlords. The prefects and county officials have vast territories and a large population.
