夫茂實英聲道周德廣。秉珪襲袞之貴。坐槐憩棠之尊。猶應共惜東暾俱吝西𡹮。悟蕉蘆之非實。知鏡月之虛衒。信秉電之不留。驗畫水之隨合。唯宜照之智炬濯以寶瀾。增此叡根成斯妙植。又各增到奉逮太尉等諸王殿下禮。云云。

Now, with flourishing fruits and eminent renown, his Dao is pervasive and virtue extensive. Even with the nobility of grasping the jade sceptre and wearing the robe, and the honor of sitting under the sophora and resting beneath the sweet-pear tree, one should still jointly cherish the morning sun and equally begrudge the western slope; realising that plantains and reeds are not real, knowing that the moon in the mirror is an empty illusion; trusting that grasping lightning does not stay, verifying that drawing on water merges immediately. One ought only to illuminate it with the torch of wisdom and wash it with the jewelled surge, increasing these roots of sagacity to accomplish this wondrous planting. Let each also, with increased earnestness, on behalf of His Highness the Grand Commandant and the other princes, pay homage, and so forth.
