錢塘高僧名道潛。以詩見知於蘇文忠公軾。公號其為參寥子。凡詩詞迭唱更和。形於翰墨。必曰參寥。及呂丞相公著為奏妙總師名之。後與簡牘。則曰妙總老師。江浙石刻具存者多矣。今略記。公離錢塘。以長短句別之曰。有情風萬里卷潮來。無情送潮歸。問錢塘江上西興浦口。幾度斜暉不用思量。今古俛仰昔人非。誰似東坡老白首忘機。記取西湖西畔。正暮山好處。空翠煙霏。算詩人相得。如我與君稀。約他年東還海道。願謝公雅志莫相違。西州路不應回首為我沾衣。仲溫瑩禪師贊曰。噫今世之小生。於有道宗師必名呼而示其忽慢。亦安知文忠於一詩僧尚爾敬重。況道德崇重者耶。瑩嗣大慧杲禪師（普燈）。

There was an eminent monk of Qiantang named Daoqian, who became known to Duke Su Wenzhong (Shi) through his poetry. The Duke bestowed on him the appellation Canliaozi. Whenever they exchanged and harmonized poetic lines and lyrics in their correspondence, he always addressed him as Canliao. Later, when Prime Minister Lü Gongzhu memorialized the throne to grant him the master's name Miaozong, then in subsequent letters he addressed him as Master Miaozong. Many of their stone inscriptions remain preserved across Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Now we record them briefly: When the Duke left Qiantang, he took leave of him with a lyric metre, which ran: "Sentient winds roll the tide in from ten thousand li; / Sentientless, they escort the tide away. / Asking the landing at Xixing on the Qiantang River: / How many times in the slanting sunlight? / There is no need to brood upon it: / Looking up and down through past and present, past men are no more. / Who is like old Dongpo, / With white hair, forgetting worldly cunning? / Remember the western shore of West Lake: / Just where the evening mountains are at their loveliest, / In the empty azure and misty haze. / Reckoning the mutual rapport among poets, / Few are like me and you. / Agreeing on a future year to return east by the sea route: / May Master Xie's elegant aspiration not be breached. / On the road of Xizhou, / One should not turn one's head and wet one's robes for my sake." Chan Master Ying of Zhongwen commented in praise: "Alas! Present-day youths inevitably address masters of the Way by their personal names, demonstrating their negligence and disrespect; how could they know that Lord Wenzhong was so respectful even toward a mere poetry monk, not to mention toward those of towering virtue and the Way?" Ying was the dharma heir of Chan Master Dahui Gao (Universal Lamp).
