    晉中散嵇康   頗似魏文。過為峻切,訐直露才,傷淵雅之致。然託喻清遠,良有鑒裁,亦未失高 流矣。     晉司空張華   其源出於王粲。其體華艷,興託不奇,巧用文字,務為妍冶。雖名高曩代,而疏亮 之士,猶恨其兒女情多,風雲氣少。謝康樂云:「張公雖復千篇,猶一體耳。」今置之 中品疑弱,處之下科恨少,在季、孟之間矣。   魏尚書何晏晉馮翊守孫楚 晉著作王讚 晉司徒掾張翰 晉中書令潘尼   平叔鴻鵠之篇,風規見矣。子荊零雨之外,正長朔風之後,雖有累札,良亦無聞。 季鷹黃華之唱,正叔綠之章,雖不具美,而文彩高麗,並得虯龍片甲,鳳凰一毛。事同 駁聖,宜居中品。     魏侍中應璩   祖襲魏文。善為古語,指事殷勤,雅意深篤,得詩人激刺之旨。至於「濟濟今日所 」,華靡可諷味焉。     晉清河守陸雲晉侍中石崇 晉襄城太守曹攄 晉朗陵公何劭   清河之方平原,殆如陳思之匹白馬。於其哲昆,故稱二陸。季倫、顏遠,並有英篇 。篤而論之,朗陵為最。     晉太尉劉琨晉中郎盧諶   其源出於王粲。善為悽戾之詞,自有清拔之氣。琨既體良才,又罹厄運,故善敘喪 亂,多感恨之詞。中郎仰之,微不逮者矣。     晉弘農太守郭璞   憲章潘岳,文體相輝,彪炳可玩。始變永嘉平淡之體,故稱中興第一。《翰林》以 為詩首。但〈遊仙〉之作,詞多慷慨,乖遠玄宗。而云:「柰何虎豹姿。」又云:「戢 翼棲榛梗。」乃是坎壈詠懷,非列仙之趣也。     晉吏部郎袁宏   彥伯〈詠史〉,雖文體未遒,而鮮明緊健,去凡俗遠矣。     晉處士郭泰機晉常侍顧愷之 宋謝世基 宋參軍顧邁 宋參軍戴凱   泰機寒女之製,孤怨宜恨。長康能以二韻答四首之美。世基橫海,顧邁鴻飛。戴凱 人實貧羸,而才章富健。觀此五子,文雖不多,氣調警拔,吾許其進,則鮑照、江淹未 足逮止。越居中品,僉曰宜哉。     宋徵士陶潛   其源出於應璩,又協左思風力。文體省淨,殆無長語。篤意真古,辭興婉愜。每觀 其文,想其人德。世歎其質直。至如「懽言醉春酒」、「日暮天無雲」,風華清靡,豈 直為田家語邪?古今隱逸詩人之宗也。     宋光祿大夫顏延之   其源出於陸機。尚巧似。體裁綺密,情喻淵深,動無虛散,一句一字,皆致意焉。 又喜用古事,彌見拘束,雖乖秀逸,是經綸文雅才。雅才減若人,則蹈於困躓矣。湯惠 休曰:「 謝詩如芙蓉出水,顏如錯彩鏤金。」顏終身病之。       宋豫章太守謝瞻宋僕射謝混 宋太尉袁淑 宋徵君王微 宋征虜將軍王僧達   其源出於張華。才力苦弱,故務其清淺,殊得風流媚趣。課其實錄,則豫章僕射, 宜分庭抗禮。徵君、太尉,可託乘後車。征虜卓卓,殆欲度驊騮前。       宋法曹參軍謝惠連   小謝才思富捷,恨其蘭玉夙凋,故長轡未騁。〈秋懷〉、〈擣衣〉之作,雖復靈運 銳思,亦何以加焉。又工為綺麗歌謠,風人第一。《謝氏家錄》云:「康樂每對惠連, 輒得佳語。後在永嘉西堂,思詩竟日不就。寤寐間忽見惠連,即成『池塘生春草』。故 嘗云:『此語有神助,非吾語也。』」       宋參軍鮑照   其源出於二張,善製形狀寫物之詞,得景陽之諔詭,含茂先之靡嫚。骨節強於謝混 ,驅邁疾於顏延。總四家而擅美,跨兩代而孤出。嗟其才秀人微,故取湮當代。然貴尚 巧似,不避危仄,頗傷清雅之調。故言險俗者,多以附照。       齊吏部謝朓   其源出於謝混,微傷細密,頗在不倫。一章之中,自有玉石,然奇章秀句,往往警 遒,足使叔源失步,明遠變色。善自發詩端,而末篇多躓,此意銳而才弱也,至為後進 士子之所嗟慕。朓極與余論詩,感激頓挫過其文。       齊光祿江淹   文通詩體總雜,善於摹擬,筋力於王微,成就於謝朓。初,淹罷宣城郡,遂宿冶亭 ,夢一美丈夫,自稱郭璞,謂淹曰:「我有筆在卿處多年矣,可以見還。」淹探懷中, 得五色筆以授之。爾後為詩,不復成語,故世傳江淹才盡。       梁衛將軍范雲梁中書郎邱遲   范詩清便宛轉,如流風迴雪。邱詩點綴映媚,似落花依草。故當淺於江淹,而秀於 任昉。       梁太常任昉   彥昇少年為詩不工,故世稱沈詩任筆,昉深恨之。晚節愛好既篤,文亦遒變。善銓 事理,拓體淵雅,得國士之風,故擢居中品。但昉既博物,動輒用事,所以詩不得奇。 少年士子,效其如此,弊矣。       梁左光祿沈約   觀休文眾製,五言最優。詳其文體,察其餘論,固知憲章鮑明遠也。所以不閑於經 綸,而長於清怨。永明相王愛文,王元長等皆宗附之。約於時謝朓未遒,江淹才盡,范 雲名級故微,故約稱獨步。雖文不至其工麗,亦一時之選也。見重閭里,誦詠成音。嶸 謂約所著既多,今翦除淫雜,收其精要,允為中品之第矣。故當詞密於范,意淺於江也 。   《詩品.卷下》      漢令史班固漢孝廉酈炎 漢上計趙壹   孟堅才流,而老於掌故。觀其〈詠史〉,有感歎之詞。文勝託詠靈芝,懷寄不淺。 元叔散憤蘭蕙,指斥囊錢。苦言切句,良亦勤矣。斯人也,而有斯困,悲夫!        魏武帝魏明帝   曹公古直,甚有悲涼之句。叡不如丕,亦稱三祖。        魏白馬王彪魏文學徐幹   白馬與陳思答贈,偉長與公幹往復,雖曰「以莛叩鐘」,亦能閑雅矣。       魏倉曹屬阮瑀晉頓邱太守歐陽建 晉文學應璩 晉中書令嵇含 晉河南太守阮侃 晉侍中    嵇紹晉黃門棗據   元瑜、堅石七君詩,並平典,不失古體。大檢似,而二嵇微優矣。     晉中書張載晉司隸傅玄 晉太僕傅咸 晉侍中繆襲 晉散騎常侍夏侯湛   孟陽詩,乃遠慚厥弟,而近超兩傅。長、虞父子,繁富可嘉。孝沖雖曰後進,見重 安仁。 熙伯〈挽歌〉,唯以造哀爾。       晉驃騎王濟晉征南將軍杜預 晉廷尉孫綽 晉徵士許詢   永嘉以來,清虛在俗。王武子輩詩,貴道家之言。爰洎江表,玄風尚備。真長、仲 祖、桓、庾諸公猶相襲。世稱孫、許,彌善恬淡之詞。       晉徵士戴逵晉東陽太守殷仲文   安道詩雖嫩弱,有清上之句,裁長補短,袁彥伯之亞乎?逵子顒,亦有一時之譽。 晉、宋之際,殆無詩乎!義熙中,以謝益壽、殷仲文為華綺之冠,殷不競矣。       宋尚書令傅亮   季友文,余常忽而不察。今沈特進撰詩,載其數首,亦復平美。       宋記室何長瑜羊曜璠 宋詹事范曄   才難,信矣!以康樂與羊、何若此,而□令辭,殆不足奇。乃不稱其才,亦為鮮舉 矣。       宋孝武帝宋南平王鑠 宋建平王宏   孝武詩,雕文織綵,過為精密,為二藩希慕,見稱輕巧矣。       宋光祿謝莊   希逸詩,氣候清雅,不逮於范、袁。然興屬閒長,良無鄙促也。     宋御史蘇寶生宋中書令史陵修之 宋典祠令任曇緒 宋越騎戴興   蘇、陵、任、戴,並著篇章,亦為搢紳之所嗟詠。人非文才是愈,甚可嘉焉。     宋監典事區惠恭   惠恭本胡人,為顏師伯幹。顏為詩筆,輒偷定之。後造〈獨樂賦〉,語侵給主,被 斥。及大將軍修北第,差充作長。時謝惠連兼記室參軍,惠恭時往共安陵嘲調。末作〈 雙枕詩〉以示謝。謝曰:「君誠能,恐人未重。且可以為謝法曹造。」遺大將軍。見之 賞歎,以錦二端賜謝。謝辭曰:「此詩,公作長所製,請以錦賜之。」       齊惠休上人齊道猷上人 齊釋寶月   惠休淫靡,情過其才。世遂匹之鮑照,恐商、周矣。羊曜璠云:「是顏公忌照之文 ,故立休、鮑之論。」庾、帛二胡,亦有清句。〈行路難〉是東陽柴廓所造。寶月嘗憩 其家,會廓亡,因竊而有之。廓子賚手本出都,欲訟此事,乃厚賂止之。       齊高帝齊征北將軍張永 齊太尉王文憲   齊高帝詩,詞藻意深,無所云少。張景雲雖謝文體,頗有古意。至如王師文憲,既 經國圖遠,或忽是雕蟲。       齊黃門謝超宗齊潯陽太守丘靈鞠 齊給事中郎劉祥 齊司徒長史檀超 齊正員郎鍾 憲 齊諸暨令顏則齊秀才顧則心   檀﹑謝七君,並祖襲顏延,欣欣不倦,得士大夫之雅致乎!余從祖正員嘗云:「大 明、泰始中,鮑、休美文,殊已動俗,惟此諸人,傅顏﹑陸體。用固執不移,顏諸暨最 荷家聲。」       齊參軍毛伯成齊朝請吳邁遠 齊朝請許瑤之   伯成文不全佳,亦多惆悵。吳善於風人答贈。許長於短句詠物。湯休謂遠云:「我 詩可為汝詩父。」以訪謝光祿,云:「不然爾,湯可為庶兄。」       齊鮑令暉齊韓蘭英   令暉歌詩,往往斷絕清巧,擬古尤勝,唯百願淫矣。照嘗答孝武云:「臣妹才自亞 於左芬,臣才不及太沖爾。」蘭英綺密,甚有名篇。又善談笑,齊武謂韓云:「借使二 媛生於上葉,則玉階之賦,紈素之辭,未詎多也。」       齊司徒長史張融齊詹事孔稚珪   思光紆緩誕放,縱有乖文體,然亦捷疾豐饒,差不局促。德璋生於封谿,而文為雕 飾,青於藍矣。       齊寧朔將軍王融齊中庶子劉繪   元長、士章,並有盛才。詞美英淨,至於五言之作,幾乎尺有所短。譬應變將略, 非武侯所長,未足以貶臥龍。       齊僕射江祏   詩猗猗清潤,弟祀明靡可懷。       齊記室王巾齊綏遠太守卞彬 齊端溪令卞錄   王巾、二卞詩,並愛奇嶄絕。慕袁彥伯之風。雖不宏綽,而文體勦淨,去平美遠矣 。       齊諸暨令袁嘏   嘏詩平平耳,多自謂能。嘗語徐太尉云:「我詩有生氣,須人捉著。不爾,便飛去 。」       齊雍州刺史張欣泰梁中書郎范縝   欣泰、子真,並希古勝文,鄙薄俗製,賞心流亮,不失雅宗。       梁秀才陸厥   觀厥文緯,具識丈夫之情狀。自製未優,非言之失也。       梁常侍虞羲梁建陽令江洪   子陽詩奇句清拔,謝朓常嗟頌之。洪雖無多,亦能自迥出。         梁步兵鮑行卿梁晉陵令孫察     行卿少年,甚擅風謠之美。察最幽微,而感賞至到耳。 End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Shi Pin, by Rong Zhong *** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK SHI PIN *** ***** This file should be named 25460-0.txt or 25460-0.zip ***** This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/2/5/4/6/25460/ Produced by Shung Ru Wu Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will be renamed.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life. Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS. The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit http://pglaf.org While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate. International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: http://www.gutenberg.org This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
