《后汉书·列传·独行列传》
女子答道 ：妾不能白天自己申诉，夜晚陈述冤情，过客常睡觉不应，不胜愤慨，所以杀过客以泄恨。 
对曰： 妾不得白日自诉，每夜陈冤，客辄眠不见应，不胜感恚，故杀之。 
The woman replied: I am unable to personally lodge an official complaint during the day, nor can I plead my grievances at night. Passersby usually have been sleeping and do not respond, so I cannot suppress my indignation and thus kill passersby to take revenge.
