泰等五寺。集重雲殿講眾千僧國內普持六齋。兆民皆受八戒）
梁太宗簡文皇帝（天姿高朗。風神超邁委心妙法。徧覽玄章。造資敬報恩二寺。刺
血自書般若十部。太后諱日不食而齋。撰法集記二百餘卷。法寶連璧四百許篇）
梁中宗孝元皇帝（體聖多能入微靈悟。造天居天宮二寺。召高名高行千僧。自講法
花每解成實）

Emperor Wu, Gaozu of Liang (Magnificent in temperament and capacity, brilliant and outstanding in insight and character. His mind ranged over the seven factors of awakening, and his thoughts steeped in the eight dhyānas. He authored the Treatise on the Five Periods and expounded the four vaipulya [sūtras]. He built five monasteries, including Guangzhai and Tongtai. At the Chongyun Hall, he gathered one thousand monks in attendance for lectures. Throughout the realm, the six fast-days were universally observed, and the myriad people all received the eight precepts.) / Emperor Jianwen, Taizong of Liang (Endowed with lofty clarity, his demeanor and spirit were transcendent. Entrusting his mind to the subtle Dharma, he perused the profound scriptures thoroughly. He built the two monasteries of Zijing and Bao'en, pricked his own blood to copy ten sets of the Prajñā [sūtras], and fasted without eating on the death anniversary of the Empress Dowager. He compiled the Records of Dharma Collections in more than two hundred fascicles and the Conjoined Jades of the Dharma Treasure in some four hundred pieces.) / Emperor Xiaoyuan, Zhongzong of Liang (Sagely in endowment and skilled in many arts, his spiritual awakening was penetrating and subtle. He built the two monasteries of Tianju and Tiangong, summoning one thousand monks of high renown and sublime practice. He personally lectured on the Lotus Sūtra and constantly explicated the Tattvasiddhi.)
