《北史·列传·卷七十七》
陆法和在他居住的房屋墙壁上写字，然后涂刷墙壁，等到泥墙剥落，有文字写道 ：十年天子还算可以，百年天子心急如火，周年天子轮流而坐。 
法和书其所居屋壁而涂之，及剥落，有文曰： 十年天子为尚可，百日天子急如火，周年天子递代坐。 
Lu Fahe wrote words on the walls of the room he lived in and then smeared mud over the wall. When the mud fell off, words appeared on the wall that said: “Ten-year emperor is still passable. Hundred-year emperor is anxious. Annual emperor takes turns to occupy the throne.”
