琰即具以表聞。勅蠲百戶以充俸給。齊驃騎豫章王嶷作鎮荊峽，遣使徵請。河南吐谷渾主，遙心敬慕，乃馳騎數百，迎於齊山。值已東赴，遂不相及。至齊武升位，司徒文宣王啟自江陵，旋于京師。文惠太子又遣徵迎，既勅令重疊，辭不獲免。於是泛舟東下，中途動疾，帶患至京，傾眾阻望，止住靈根。少時而卒，春秋六十有九。是歲齊永明二年十一月十六日，即窆于鍾阜獨龍山前。臨川獻王立碑，汝南周顒製文。

> Yan immediately submitted a memorial reporting the matter in full. An imperial decree exempted one hundred households from taxes to provide for his maintenance. Prince Yizhang, Xiao Ni, General of Agile Cavalry of the Qi, was stationed in Jingxia and sent envoys to summon him. The ruler of the Tuyuhun in Henan, admiring him with devotion from afar, dispatched several hundred cavalry to welcome him at Mount Qi. Finding that he had already departed eastward, they did not reach him. When Emperor Wu of the Qi ascended the throne, Prince Wenxuan, the Minister of Education, submitted a memorial from Jiangling and returned to the capital. Crown Prince Wenhui also sent to summon and welcome him; as the imperial decrees were repeated, he could not decline and obtain exemption. Thereupon he sailed down the river on a boat, but fell ill en route and arrived at the capital bearing his ailment. Disappointing the eager hopes of the crowds, he stayed at Linggen Temple. Soon after, he passed away at the age of sixty-nine. On the sixteenth day of the eleventh month in the second year of the Yongming reign era of the Qi, he was buried before Mount Dulong at Zhongfu. Prince Xian of Linchuan erected a stele, and Zhou Yong of Runan composed the inscription.
