《梁书·本纪·卷一》
直道正义，压制多年，怀冤有理，不知向谁申诉奸吏趁机，肆意独断。
直道正义，拥抑弥年，怀冤抱理，莫知谁诉。奸吏因之，笔削自己。
Uprightness and justice had been suppressed for many years, and those who cherished grievances and felt wronged did not know who to appeal to, while treacherous officials seized the opportunity to act in an arbitrary and lawless manner.
