《北史·列传·卷六十二》
 陛下掌握天下，统治百姓，总揽各种善政，教化八方，把百姓放在心上，而不是一人独受上天的吉庆，先天不违其所欲，后天必尊奉其时。
伏惟陛下握录图而驭黔首，提万善而化八纮，以百姓为心，匪一人受庆，先天罔违所欲，后天必奉其时。
Your Majesty has taken over the world, ruled the people, and taken into account all kinds of good policies. You have educated all sides, kept the people in mind, and not enjoyed the auspiciousness of heaven alone. The innate does not go against its desire, and the acquired must observe its time.
