    初,山陰丁覽,太末徐陵,或在縣吏之中,或眾所未識,翻一見之,便與友善,終鹹顯名。〈《会稽典录》曰:◎览字孝连,八岁而孤,家又单微,清身立行,用意不苟,推财从弟,以义让称。仕郡至功曹,守始平长。为人精微絜净,门无杂宾。孙权深贵待之,未及擢用,会病卒,甚见痛惜,殊其门户。览子固,字子贱,本名密,避滕密,改作固。固在襁褓中,阚泽见而异之,曰:“此兒后必致公辅。”固少丧父,独与母居,家贫守约,色养致敬,族弟孤弱,与同寒温。翻与固同僚书曰:“丁子贱塞渊好德,堂构克举,野无遗薪,斯之为懿,其美优矣。令德之后,惟此君嘉耳。”历显位,孙休时固为左御史大夫,孙皓即位,迁司徒。皓悖虐,固与陆凯、孟宗同心忧国,年七十六卒。子弥,字钦远,仕晋,至梁州刺史。孙潭,光禄大夫。◎徐陵字元大,历三县长,所在著称,迁零陵太守。时朝廷俟以列卿之位,故翻书曰:“元大受上卿之遇,叔向在晋,未若於今。”其见重如此。陵卒,僮客土田或见侵夺,骆统为陵家讼之,求与丁览、卜清等为比,权许焉。陵子平,字伯先,童龀知名,翻甚爱之,屡称叹焉。诸葛恪为丹杨太守,讨山越,以平威重思虑,可与效力,请平为丞,稍迁武昌左部督,倾心接物,士卒皆为尽力。初,平为恪从事,意甚薄,及恪辅政,待平益疏。恪被害,子建亡走,为平部曲所得,平使遣去,别为佗军所获。平两妇归宗,敬奉情过乎厚。其行义敦笃,皆此类也。〉在南十餘年,年七十卒。〈《吴书》曰:翻虽在徙弃,心不忘国,常忧五谿宜讨,以辽东海绝,听人使来属,尚不足取,今去人财以求马,既非国利,又恐无获。欲谏不敢,作表以示吕岱,岱不报,为爱憎所白,复徙苍梧猛陵。《江表传》曰:后权遣将士至辽东,於海中遭风,多所没失,权悔之,乃令曰:“昔赵简子称诸君之唯唯,不如周舍之谔谔。虞翻亮直,善於尽言,国之周舍也。前使翻在此,此役不成。”促下问交州,翻若尚存者,给其人船,发遣还都;若以亡者,送丧还本郡,使兒子仕宦。会翻已终。〉歸葬舊墓,妻子得還。
