《后汉书·列传·班梁列传》
我确实伤感于班超在壮年时候竭尽忠孝于沙漠之中，衰老的时候则被遗弃而死于荒凉空旷的原野。这真够悲伤可怜啊！
妾诚伤超以壮年竭忠孝于沙漠，疲老则便捐死于旷野，诚可哀怜。
I am deeply saddened that Ban Chao, in his prime, exhausted his loyalty and filial piety in the desert, and in his old age was abandoned to die in the desolate wilderness. How truly tragic and pitiable!
