《宋书·列传·卷四十九》
既熟悉了战阵，又胆量才能过人，忠诚恭谨，未曾有错误，很得高祖的喜欢，在娄县战斗中，他的左眼被箭射伤。
既习战阵，胆力过人，诚心忠谨，未尝有过失，甚见爱信。于娄县战，箭中左目。
In time he not only mastered battle tactics but also demonstrated great courage, loyalty and prudence, never making a single mistake. He won the favor of the Supreme Ancestor, and in the battle of Lou County he lost his left eye to an arrow.
