《宋书·列传·卷七十八》
为国家的事业做了很多的工作，从外州到朝廷，同样勤劳肯干，多达二十四年，在国家出现动乱时，他最先赞成起事讨贼，义兵发动，他则像萧何寇恂那样照顾后方，使我无后顾之忧。
灵业中圮，则首赞宏图；义令既举，则任均萧、寇。
He did a lot for the cause of the country, from the outside states to the imperial court. He served with equal diligence for twenty-four years. When the country was in turmoil, he was the first to support the uprising and crusade against the rebels. When the righteous army was raised, he was like Xiao He and Kou Xun, who took care of the rear, so that I would have no worries.
