    是時有司頗以條書問事,和以爲姦妄之人,將因事錯意,以生禍心,不可長也,表宜絕之。又都督劉寶白庶子丁晏,晏亦白寶,和謂晏曰:「文武在事,當能幾人,因隙構簿,圖相危害,豈有福哉?」遂兩釋之,使之從厚。常言當世士人宜講脩術學,校習射御,以周世務,而但交游博弈以妨事業,非進取之謂。後羣寮侍宴,言及博弈,以爲妨事費日而無益於用,勞精損思而終無所成,非所以進德脩業,積累功緒者也。且志士愛日惜力,君子慕其大者,高山景行,恥非其次。夫以天地長乆,而人居其間,有白駒過隙之喻,年齒一暮,榮華不再。凡所患者,在於人情所不能絕,誠能絕無益之欲以奉德義之塗,棄不急之務以脩功業之基,其於名行,豈不善哉?夫人情猶不能無嬉娛,嬉娛之好,亦在於飲宴琴書射御之間,何必博弈,然後爲歡。乃命侍坐者八人,各著論以矯之。於是中庶子韋曜退而論奏,和以示賔客。時蔡穎好弈,直事在署者頗斆焉,故以此諷之。
