良痛母老家貧，供奉無寄； I grieve that my mother is old, our household poor, and no one left to support her;

夫人在堂，稚子襁褓，顧當以身少，相感長往之恨。」 Your mother is still in the hall and our child still in swaddling clothes; though I am young, I shall bear the burden of your long absence."

姑劉氏輟哭而謂曰：「新婦何至於此！」 Her mother-in-law Lady Liu stopped weeping and said, "Daughter-in-law, how could you go so far!"
