13.82

其後瓦官道親、彭城寶興、耆闍道登,並皆祖述宣唱,高韻華言,非忝前例。傾眾動物,論者後之。今上為長沙宣武王治鏡所住寺,因改曰「宣武」也。

Thereafter, Daoqin of Waguan, Baoxing of Pengcheng, and Daodeng of Qidu all followed in the lineage of vocal cantillation. Their lofty resonance and florid diction did not fall short of the precedents. Yet in moving the multitude and swaying living beings, critics place them behind [Fajing]. Our present Emperor renovated the temple where Fajing had resided for Prince Xuanwu of Changsha, and on that account renamed it "Xuanwu".
