《后汉书·列传·左周黄列传》
现在阿母生活俭朴，以身作则，百官及一般百姓，没有不学习她的。如果与王圣一样封爵，我怕违反了她的操守，反而违背了她的愿望。
今阿母躬蹈约俭，以身率下，群僚蒸庶，莫不向风，而与王圣并同爵号，惧违本操，失其常愿。
Now Grandmother lives frugally, and acts as a role model, and all the officials and common people cannot help but learn from her. If I confer a title on her as Wang Sheng did, I am afraid that it will violate her conduct, and to the contrary would violate her will.
