軍當遠出,卿諸人好諦其事。昔先(主)不取漢中,走與吳人爭南三郡,卒以三郡與吳人,徒勞役吏士,無益而還。既亡漢中,使夏侯淵、張郃深入於巴,幾喪一州。後至漢中,使關侯身死無孑遺,上庸覆敗,徒失一方。是羽怙恃勇名,作軍無法,直以意突耳,故前後數喪師眾也。如向朗、文恭,凡俗之人耳。恭作治中無綱紀;朗昔奉馬良兄弟,謂為聖人,今作長史,素能合道。中郎郭演長,從人者耳,不足與經大事,而作侍中。今弱世也,欲任此三人,為不然也。王連流俗,苟作掊克,使百姓疲弊,以致今日。

服聞德行,飢渴歷時,清濁異流,無緣諮覯。王元泰、李伯仁、王文儀、楊季休、丁君乾、李永南兄弟、文仲寶等,每歎高志,未見如舊。猥以空虛,統領貴州,德薄任重,慘慘憂慮、朝廷主公今年始十八,天姿仁敏,愛德下士。天下之人思慕漢室,欲與君因天順民,輔此明主,以隆季興之功,著勳於竹帛也。以謂賢愚下相為謀,故自割絕,守勞而已,不圖自屈也。
