1 諫格虎賦:
帝使亡諸大夫問乎下國。下國之君方帥將士於中原,車騎駢闐,被行岡巒,手格猛虎,生縳貙犴,昧爽而出,見星而還,國政不恤,惟此為歡。乃誇於大夫曰:「下國鄙固,不知帝者之事,敢問天子之格虎,豈有異術哉?」大夫未之應,因又言曰:「下國褊陋,莫以虞心,故乃闢四封以為藪,圍境內以為林;禽鳥育之,驛驛淫淫;晝則鳴嚾,夜則嘷吟;飛禽起而日翳,獸動而雷音;犯之者其罪死,驚之者其刑深。虞候苑令,是掌厥禁。於是分幕將士,營遮榛叢,戴星入野,列火求蹤,見虞自自,乃往尋從;張罝網,羅刃鋒,驅檻車,聽鼓鍾;猛虎顛遽,奔走西東;悕駭內懷,迷冒怔忪;耳目喪精,值網而衝;局然自縳;以絲組,斬其爪牙;支輪登較,高載歸家。孟賁被髮嗔目,蹂猾紛華。都邑百姓,莫不于邁。陳列路隅,咸稱萬歲。斯亦畋獵之至樂也。」大夫曰:「順君之心、樂矣。然非樂之至也。樂至者、與百姓同之之謂也。夫兕虎之生,與天地偕。山林澤藪,又其宅也。被有德之君,則不為害。今君荒於遊獵,莫恤國政,驅民入山林,格虎於其廷,妨害農業,殘夭民命,國政其必亂,民命其必散,國亂民散,君誰與處?以此為至樂,所未聞也。」於是下國之君乃頓首,曰:「臣實不敏,習之日久矣。幸今承誨,請遂改之。」
