《汉书·传·傅常郑甘陈段传》
陈汤有幸得以生活在现在圣明的时代，建立功劳没有过去多久，反而听任奸邪的大臣把他排斥得远远的，使他流亡逃匿，死无葬身之地。
汤幸得身当圣世，功曾未久，反听邪臣鞭逐斥远，使亡逃分窜，死无处所。
Chen Tang was fortunate enough to have lived in this enlightened age. It was not long after his merits were established that he was driven far away by treacherous ministers, causing him to live in exile and misery, and die without a proper burial.
