《太平广记·卷三百五十一·鬼三十》
温庭筠烧上香，再三叩拜后才把信拿来看，然而却看不懂上面的意思。信上写道：我悲痛的进了阴府之门，哀叹我的寿数太短促了！
乃焚香再拜而读，但不谕其理，辞曰：恸发幽门，哀归短数。
Wen Tingyun burned some incense and kowtowed repeatedly before reading the letter, but he could not understand what was written on it. The letter read: In my sorrow, I have entered the gates of the underworld and lamented that my life was too short!
