### [36.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.36.52)

述曰。桓彝守宣城死於蘇畯之難。忠矣。子溫握兵以窺朝廷。亂矣。溫子玄藉父之資終為僭逆。身死家亡。賊矣。後世修史置彝列傳溫玄四夷傳。辱先世為多矣。玄南面八十日。其迹似王莾。而不能久世為權臣。而卒自陷於亂賊。其可為後世戒。

> The commentary states: Huan Yi guarded Xuancheng and died in the calamity of Su Jun—this was loyalty. His son Wen held military power to eye the throne—this was rebellion. Wen's son Xuan drew on his father's resources and ultimately committed usurpation and treason, losing his life and ruining his house—this was villainy. When later generations compiled the histories, they placed Yi in the biographies and Wen and Xuan in the accounts of the four barbarian tribes, bringing much disgrace upon their ancestors. Xuan sat facing south as ruler for eighty days; his deeds were like Wang Mang's, yet he could not endure for long. Born of a house of powerful ministers, he ultimately plunged himself into rebellion and treason; can he not serve as a warning to later generations?
