《南史·列传·卷二十六》
郡南有一家有很多竹子和石头，袁粲便随意地步行前往，也不通告主人，径直走到竹子那里去，啸咏自得。
郡南一家颇有竹石，粲率尔步往，亦不通主人，直造竹所，啸咏自得。
There was a house in the south of the county with many bamboo trees and rocks, and Yuan Can would often casually go there without informing the owner. He would go straight to the bamboo trees, where he would sing and chant to his heart's content.
