《论衡·卷二十五·解除篇》
假如鬼神同活人一样，对人的住宅有什么目的的话，就如同老百姓目的在于观看贵人一样，士卒驱逐，如果不是长久地站在那里看守，那么围观者是不会退走的。
使鬼神与生人同，有欲於宅中，犹万民有欲於观也，士卒驱逐，不久立守，则观者不却也。
If ghosts and spirits were the same as humans, with the purpose of living in the dwelling place of humans, then it would be just like the people watching the nobles; if the soldiers were to drive them away but did not stand there and watch for a while, the bystanders would not retreat.
