《明史·列传·卷一百零五》
吴道南极力劝谏，称沿湖的舟船没有停泊之处，大都倾覆沉没，请求皇帝罢除关卡，不要征税，皇帝也不采纳。
道南极言傍湖舟无所泊，多覆没，请罢关勿征，亦不纳。
Wu Daonan strenuously advised against this, saying that the lake did not have a place for boats to dock, and that many of them would capsize and sink, and he requested that the emperor remove the checkpoint and not collect taxes, but the emperor did not accept his request.
