+全家,詣曰:「君有錢一千万,銅器亦如之,大柳樹錢在其下,取錢 +當得爾。於君家大不吉。仆尋為君取此。」便去。自爾出三十年,遂 +不复來。全家亦不取錢。 + +元嘉元年,建安郡山賊破戶,忽有蜜蜂數万頭,從衣簏出,同時噬螫 +。群賊身首腫痛,眼皆盲合,先諸所掠,皆棄而走。 + +蔡裔有勇气,聲若雷震。嘗有二偷儿入室,裔拊床一呼,二盜俱隕。 +昔有一人,与如同時得腹瘕病,治不能愈。奴既死,乃剖腹視之,得 +一白鱉,赤眼,甚鮮明。乃試以諸毒藥澆灌之,并內藥於鱉口,悉無 +無損動,乃系鱉於床腳,忽有一客來看之,乘一白馬。既而馬溺濺鱉 +,鱉乃惶駭,欲疾走避溺,因系之不得去,乃縮藏頭頸焉。病者察之 +,謂其子曰:「吾病或可以救矣。」乃試取白馬溺以灌鱉上,須臾便 +消成數升水。病者乃頓服升餘白馬溺,病豁然愈。 + +太尉郗鑒,字道徽,鎮丹徒。曾出獵,時二月中,蕨始生。有一甲士 +,折食一莖,即覺心中淡淡,欲吐。因歸,乃成心腹疼痛。經半年許 +,忽大吐,吐出一赤蛇,長尺餘,尚活動搖。乃挂著屋檐前,汁稍稍 +出,蛇漸焦小。經一宿視之,乃是一莖蕨。猶昔之所食,病遂除。 + +桓宣武時,有一督將,畋時行病後虛熱,更能飲复茗,必有斛二斗乃 +飽□減升合,便以為不足。非复一日。家貧。後有客造之,正遇其飲 +复茗,亦先聞世有此病,仍令更進五升,乃大吐,有一物出,如升大 +,有口,形質縮縐,狀如牛肚。客乃令置之傳令盆中,以一斛二斗复 +茗澆之。此物歙之都盡,而止覺小脹。又加五升,便悉混然從口中涌 +出。既吐此物,其病遂差。或問之:「此何病?」答云:「此病名斛 +二瘕。」 + +桓哲字明期,居豫章時,梅元龍為太守,先已病矣,哲往省之。語梅 +云:「吾昨夜忽夢見作卒,迎卿來作泰山府君。梅聞之愕然,曰:「 +吾亦夢見卿為卒,著喪衣,來迎我。」經我數日。复同夢如前,云「 +二十八日當拜」。至二十七日晡時,桓忽中惡腹滿,就梅索麝香丸, +梅聞便令作汕具。二十七日,桓便亡。二十八日而梅卒。平原草茅下 +士歆,字子魚,為諸生時,常宿人門外,主人婦夜產。有頃,兩吏來 +詣其門,便相向辟易,欲退卻相謂曰:「公在此。」因踟躕良久。一 +吏曰:「籍當定,奈何得住?」乃向子魚拜、相將入。出,并行共語 +曰:「當与几歲?」一人云:「當与三歲。」天明,子魚去。後欲驗 +其事,至三歲,故往視儿消息,果三歲已死。乃自喜曰:「我固當公 +。後果為太尉。」 + +宋時有一人,忘其姓氏,与婦同寢,天曉婦起出,後其大尋亦出外。 +婦還,見其夫猶在被中眠。須臾,奴子自外來,云:「郎求鏡。」婦 +以奴作,乃指床上以示奴。奴云:「适從郎間來。於是白馳其。夫大 +愕,便入。与婦共視被中人,高枕安寢,正是其形,了無一异。慮是 +其神魂,不敢惊動。乃共以手徐徐撫床,遂冉冉入席而滅。夫婦惋怖 +不已。少時,夫忽得疾,性理乘錯,終身不愈。 + +董壽之被誅,其家尚未知。妻夜坐,忽見壽之居其側,嘆息不已。妻 +問:「夜間何得而歸?」壽之都不應答。有頃,出門繞雞籠而行,籠 +中雞惊叫。妻疑有异,持火出戶視之,見血數升,而壽之失所在。遂 +以告姑,因与大小號哭,知有變,及晨,果得凶問。 + +宋時有諸生遠學,其父母燃火夜作,儿忽至前,嘆息曰:「今我但魂 +爾,非复生人。」父母問之,儿曰:「此月初病,以今日某時之女。 +今難言琅琊任子成家,明日當殮M來迎父母。」父母曰:」去此千里 +,雖复顛倒,那得及汝?」儿曰:「外有車乘,但乘之,自得至矣。 +」父母從之上車,忽若睡,比雞鳴,已至所在。視其駕乘,但魂車木 +馬。遂与主人相見,臨儿悲哀。問其疾消息,如言 + + +卷四 + +晉時,東平馮孝將為廣州太守。儿名馬子,年二十餘,獨臥廄中,夜 +夢見一女子,年十八九,言:「我是前太守北海徐玄方女,不幸蚤亡 +。亡來今已四年,為鬼所枉殺。案生錄,當八十餘,听我更生,要當 +有依馬子乃得生活,又應為君妻。能從所委,見救活不?」馬子答曰 +:「可爾。」乃与馬子克期當出。至期日,床前地頭發正与地平,令 +人掃去,則愈分明,始悟是所夢見者。遂屏除左右人,便漸漸額出, +次頭面出,又次肩項形体頓出。馬子便令坐對榻上,陳說語言,奇妙 +非常。遂与馬子寢息。每誡云:「我尚虛爾。」即問何時得出,答曰 +:「出當得本命生日,尚未至。」遂往中,言語聲音,人皆聞之。女 +計生日至,乃具教馬子出己養之方法,語畢辭去。馬子從其言,至日 +,以丹雄雞一只,黍飯一盤,清酒一升,□其喪前,去十餘步,祭訖 +,掘棺出,開視,女身体貌全如故。徐徐抱出,著氈帳中,唯心下微 +□,口有气息。令婢四人守養護之。常以青羊乳汁瀝其兩眼,漸漸能 +開,口能咽粥,既而能語,二百日中,持杖起行,一期之後,顏色肌 +膚气力悉复如常,乃遣報徐氏,上下盡來。選吉日下禮,聘為夫婦。 +生二儿一女:長男元慶,永嘉為秘書郎中;小男字敬度,作太傅掾; +女适濟南劉子彥,徵士延世之孫云。 + +干寶字令升,其先新蔡人。父瑩,有嬖妾。母至妒,寶父葬時,因生 +拉住婢著藏中。寶兄弟年小,不之審也。經十年而母喪,開墓,見其 +伏棺上,衣服如生。就視猶□,漸漸有气息。興還家,終日而蘇。云 +寶父常致飲食,与之寢接,恩情如生。家中吉凶,輒語之,校之悉驗 +。平复數年後方卒。寶兄嘗病气絕,積日不冷。後遂寤,云見天地間 +鬼神事,如夢覺,不自知死。 + +晉太元中,北地人陳良与沛國劉舒友善,又与同郡李焉共為商賈。後 +大得利,焉殺良取物。死十許日,良忽蘇活,得歸家,說死時,見友 +人劉舒,舒久已亡,謂良曰:「去年春社日祠祀,家中斗爭,吾實忿 +之,作一兕於庭前,卿歸,豈能為我說此耶?」良故往報舒家,其怪 +亦絕。乃詣官疏李焉而伏罪。 + +襄陽李除,中時气死。其婦守尸。至於三更,崛然起坐,搏婦臂上金

+晉時,武都太守李仲文在郡喪女,年十八,權假葬郡城北。有張世之 +代為郡。世之男字子長,年二十,侍從在廨中,夜夢一女,年可十七 +八,顏色不常,自言:「前府君女,不幸早亡。會今當更生。心相愛 +樂,故來相就。」如此五六夕。忽然晝見,衣服薰春殊絕,遂為夫妻 +,寢息衣皆有污,如處女焉。後仲文遣婢視女墓,因過世之婦相問。 +入廨中,見此女一只履在子長床下。取之啼泣,呼而發冢。持履歸, +以示仲文。仲文惊愕,遣問世之:」君儿可由得亡女履耶?」世之呼 +問,儿具道本末。李、張并謂可可怪。發棺視之,女体已生肉,姿顏 +如故,右腳有履,左腳無也。子長夢女曰:「我比得生,今為所發。 +自爾之後遂死,肉爛不得生矣。万恨之心,當复何言!」涕泣而別。 + +魏時,尋陽縣北山中蠻人有術,能使人化作虎。毛色爪牙,悉如真虎 +。鄉人周□有一奴,使入伐薪。奴有婦及妹,亦与俱行。既至山,如

+与江夏黃母相似。 + + +卷五 + +晉安帝時,侯官人謝瑞,少喪父母,無有親屬,為鄰人所養。至年十 +七八,恭謹自守,不履非法。始出居,未有妻,鄰人共愍念之,規為 +娶婦,未得。端夜臥早起,躬耕力作,不舍晝夜。後於邑下得一大螺 +,如三升壺。以為异物,險以歸,貯□中。畜之十數日。端每早至野 +還,見其戶中有飯飲湯火,如有人為者。端謂鄰人為之惠也。數日如

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

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 https://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 including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was 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: + + https://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. |
