《明史·列传·卷八十四》
我看前些时候礼官所提出的主张，就有不合乎人情，名实不相符的地方，一方面死守《礼经》中的话，另一方面遵循宋儒的说教。

In my opinion, the suggestions proposed by officials of the Ministry of Rites some time ago were not in line with human nature, and the names did not match the facts, and on the one hand, they stubbornly adhered to the words in the Five Classics of Etiquette, and on the other hand, they followed the teachings of Song Dynasty Confucian scholars.
