《搜神记·卷十一》
他父亲王仪，被文帝所杀害，王裒在父亲的坟墓旁盖起了守丧时住的草屋，早晚常在坟墓边行礼跪拜，抓着柏树悲痛地大哭。他的眼泪落到树上，树便干枯了。
父仪，为文帝所杀。裒庐于墓侧，旦夕常至墓所拜跪，攀柏悲号，涕泣着树，树为之枯。
His father, Wang Yi, was executed by Emperor Wen, and Wang Pou built a mourning hut beside his father's tomb, where he would often bow down and kneel in the morning and evening, clutching a cypress tree and weeping bitterly. His tears fell on the tree, and it withered as a result.
