2.234

遺者，逸也。謂野逸散民，比跡虞仲夷逸。亦自號也。公亦嘗為柴桑令，值桓玄僭逆初萌，乃歎曰：「晉室無磐石之固，蒼生有累卵之危。」因去廬山，辟命弗顧。太尉劉裕見其野志冲邈，乃以高尚人相禮（云云）。和南者，天竺敬禮之辭。頃餐下，名達曰聞，謂近味美名、遠懷思慕。久立，遠望也。本傳「佇」作「仰」字。蘊者，積蓄不通也。時南北兩國，故音信難通，增其蘊積耳。沈痾下，謂陸沈病身於山林草澤之中，更甞有弊困之病也。

"Yi" (遺) means recluse or retired. It refers to a scattered civilian living retired in the wilds, following the footsteps of Yuzhong and Yiyi. It was also his self-chosen moniker. The master also once served as the magistrate of Chaisang. When Huan Xuan's treasonous rebellion was first budding, he sighed and said: "The Jin court lacks the stability of a great boulder, while the common people face the peril of piled eggs." Thereupon he departed for Mount Lu, refusing any official appointments. Grand Commander Liu Yu, seeing his lofty and detached aspirations in the wilds, treated him with the etiquette due to a noble recluse (and so forth). "He'nan" (和南) is a respectful greeting in India [vandanā]. From "recently I have savoured" onward: when a name spreads far, it is called "renown"; this means recently savouring his fine name and longing for him in thought from afar. "Standing long" means gazing into the distance; the original biography has the character "admiring" (仰) for "standing long" (佇). "Pent-up" refers to accumulating without release. At that time there were two countries, north and south, so correspondence was difficult to convey, thereby increasing his pent-up feelings. From "suffers from chronic illness" onward: it refers to burying his sick body among the mountain forests and marshes, furthermore having suffered from wearisome and exhausting illnesses.
