《魏书·列传·卷九》
陛下圣明深湛，事情超越百代，臣下得以亲自秉承旨意，是千载难逢的。 
陛下圣叡渊明，事超百代，臣得亲承音旨，千载一时。 
Your Majesty’s sanctity and enlightenment are profound and far-reaching, and your deeds surpass those of all past generations. The officials are able to receive your personal instructions; it is an encounter that comes only once in a thousand years.
