《汉书·传·韦贤传》
韦玄成的朋友、侍郎章也向朝廷上书说： 圣明的君主治理国家，崇尚的是礼让仁义的行为。对玄成朝廷应当优礼相待，不要委屈冤枉了他的好志向，让他自居贫贱而能心安。 
玄成友人侍郎章亦上疏言： 圣王贵以礼让为国，宜优养玄成，勿枉其志，使得自安衡门之下。 
We Xuancheng's friend, the attendant Zhang, also submitted a document to the imperial court and said: A wise monarch wants to govern a country that promotes civilized behavior and morality. The imperial court should treat Xuancheng favorably and not wrong his noble aspirations, so that he can live in poverty with peace of mind.
