请求核实祖宗赋税额度和经费多少的数目，一一规划，便知道赋税收入有限，而虚浮浪费不容不节制。 
请核祖宗赋额及经费多寡之数，一一区画，则知赋入有限，而浮费不容不节矣。 
It was requested that a review be carried out of the amounts of ancestral taxes and expenses, and that these be planned in detail: then it would be understood that tax income was limited and that wasteful extravagance had to be controlled.
