《宋史·列传·卷七十一》
英宗即位，应当撰写先帝的谥号，王珪说： 古时候贫贱的人不为高贵的写哀祭文，年少的不为年长的写哀祭文，因此天子自称天来哀祭，在郊外制定谥号，好像说是受之于天。
英宗立，当撰先帝谥，珪言： 古者贱不诔贵，幼不诔长，故天子称天以诔之，制谥于郊，若云受之于天者。
Emperor Yingzong had just ascended to the throne, so it was proper to write an honorific posthumous title for the late emperor, and Wang Gui said: In ancient times humble people don't write elegies for the noble, young did not write elegies for the old, so the emperor called himself "the heavens" to offer the sacrifices, and set the posthumous title in the suburbs, as if saying the name came from the heavens.
