極暄法師道體何如。眾內咸宜也。雁門遠法師四依菩薩，翻飛朔野棲息南山，自斯以後名德相繼。智者見令為寺檀越，顧修寡薄非敢克當，獎導既引良深隨喜，敬德指此承問。楊廣和南。三月二十一日。

It is extremely warm; how is the Dharma Master's health? Is all well within the assembly? Dharma Master Yuan of Yanmen was a bodhisattva of the four reliances; flying forth from the northern wilds, he rested upon the southern mountain, and from then on, renowned virtues followed one after another. The Wise One (Zhizhe) has now asked me to be the monastery's dānapati; looking upon my meager cultivation, I hardly dared to consider myself worthy, yet since your guidance has led the way, I rejoice with profound sincerity. Respecting your virtue, I send this message of inquiry. Yang Guang bows his head. Twenty-first day of the third month.
