文學曰:「方李斯之相秦也,始皇任之,人臣無貳,然而荀卿謂之不食,睹其罹不測之禍也。包丘子飯麻蓬藜,修道白屋之下,樂其志,安之於廣廈芻豢,無赫赫之勢,亦無戚戚之憂。夫晉獻垂棘,非不美也,宮之奇見之而嘆,知荀息之圖之也。智伯富有三晉,非不盛也,然不知襄子之謀之也。季孫之狐貉,非不麗也,而不知魯君之患之也。故晉獻以寶馬釣虞、虢,襄子以城壞誘智伯。故智伯身禽於趙,而虞、虢卒幷於晉,以其務得不顧其後,貪土地而利寶馬也。孔子曰:『人無遠慮,必有近憂。』今之在位者,見利不虞害,貪得不顧恥,以利易身,以財易死。無仁義之德,而有富貴之祿,若蹈坎阱,食於懸門之下,此李斯之所以伏五刑也。南方有鳥名鹓鶵,非竹實不食,非醴泉不飲,飛過泰山,泰山之鴟,俛啄腐鼠,仰見鹓雛而嚇。今公卿以其富貴笑儒者為之常行,得無若泰山鴟嚇鹓鶵乎?」
