原文：陰月，過潤州，謁房師鄭公，時閩中劉大行自都門來，陳大將軍及同盟劉刺史飲舟中。適奴子自姬處來。雲：姬歸不脫去時衣，此時尚方空在體。謂餘不速往圖之，彼甘凍死。劉大行指餘曰：“辟疆夙稱風義。固如負一女子耶？”餘雲：“黃衫押衙．非君平、仙客所能自力。”刺史舉杯奮袂回；“若以千金恣我出入．即於今日往！陳大將軍立貸數百[閱讀全文]

原文：才抵海陵，旋就試、至六月抵家。荊人對餘曰：“姬令其父力已過江來，姬返吳門，茹素不出，惟翹首聽金陵偕行之約。聞言心異，以十金遣其父去曰：“我已憐其意而許之、但令靜俟畢場事後，無不可耳。”餘感荊人相成相許之雅，遂不踐走使迎姬之約．競赴金陵、俟場後報姬。金桂月三下之辰，餘方出闈，姬猝到葉寓館。蓋望餘耗不至，孤身挈一嫗[閱讀全文]

原文：歸曆秋冬，奔馳萬狀，至壬午仲春，都門政府言路諸公，恤勞人之勞，憐獨子之苦，馳量移之耗，先報餘。時正在毗陵，聞音，如石去心，因便過吳門謝陳姬。蓋殘冬屢趨餘，皆未及答。至則十日前複為竇霍門下客以勢逼去。先，吳門有昵之者，集千人嘩動劫之。勢家複為大言挾詐，又不惜數千金為賄。地方恐貽伊戚，劫出複納入。餘至，悵惘無極，然以急嚴親[閱讀全文]

原文： 庚辰夏，留滯影園，欲過訪姬。客從吳門來，知姬去西子湖，兼往遊黃山白嶽，遂不果行。辛巳早春，餘省覲去衡嶽，由浙路往，過半塘訊姬，則仍滯黃山。許忠節公赴粵任，與餘聯舟行。偶一日，赴飲歸，謂餘曰：“此中有陳姬某，擅梨園之勝，不可不見。”餘佐忠節公治舟數往返，始得之。其人淡而韻，盈盈冉冉，衣椒繭，時背顧湘裙，真如孤鸞之在[閱讀全文]

作者：冒襄 原文：愛生於昵，昵則無所不飾。緣飾著愛，天下鮮有真可愛者矣。矧內屋深屏，貯光闃彩，止憑雕心鏤質之文人描摹想像，麻姑幻譜，神女浪傳。近好事家複假篆聲詩，侈談奇合，遂使西施、夷光、文君、洪度，人人閣中有之，此亦閨秀之奇冤，而啖名之惡習已。 譯文：愛產生於親昵，而一旦親昵，人們便會對所愛之人無所不加以修飾。正因為這種[閱讀全文]

新冠四年，歲在癸卯。時維孟冬，陰氣厲清。十月既望，華燈初上。餘與大學同班同學會於並州老太原菜館，共慶畢業卅年華誕。菜館大門兩側，一幅楹聯映入眼簾：一片桐葉締造不朽三晉文化，千年厚積鑄就新派晉菜輝煌。行書字體龍飛鳳舞，蒼勁有力，賞心悅目，秀色可餐。菜館裝修風格古樸典雅，設有雅座包間，棚頂燈籠高懸，假山怪石，亭台水榭，點綴其中。一腳踏[閱讀全文]
