宋羅璵妻費氏者。寧蜀人。父悅宋寧州刺史。費少而敬信。誦法華經數年。勤至不倦。後忽得病苦。心痛守命。闔門惶懼。屬纊待時。費氏心念。我誦經勤苦。宜有善祐。庶不於此遂致死也。既而睡臥食頃。如寤如夢。見佛於窓中授手以摩其心。應時都愈。一堂男女婢僕。悉覩金光。亦聞香氣。璵從妹即琰外族曾祖。尚書中兵部費愔之夫人也。于時省疾床前亦具聞見。於是大興信悟虔戒至終。每以此瑞進化子姪焉。

> Lady Fei, the wife of Luo Yu of the Song dynasty, was a native of Ningshu. Her father, Yue, was the Regional Inspector of Ningzhou under the Song. From youth, Fei was reverent and faithful; she recited the Lotus Sūtra for several years, diligent and tireless. Later, she suddenly fell ill with intense pain in her heart, hanging on to life. The whole family was terrified; they placed a silk thread \[under her nose to test for breath\] and awaited her moment of death. Lady Fei thought in her heart: 'I have recited the sūtra with diligence and toil; there ought to be wholesome protection. I hope I will not reach death from this.' Soon, while lying asleep for the time of a meal, in a state between waking and dreaming, she saw the Buddha extend his hand through the window and rub her heart. Immediately, she was completely cured. The whole household—men, women, and servants—all beheld a golden light and also smelled a fragrant scent. Yu's female cousin was the maternal great-grandmother of Yan, the wife of Fei Yin, Director in the Bureau of War of the Department of State Affairs. At that time, visiting the sickbed, she also fully heard and saw it. Thereupon she gave rise to great faith and awakening, reverently observing the precepts until the end of her life, and always used this auspicious omen to inspire and transform her sons and nephews.
