凡纂書者。必攷據精實。勿之有疎。然後可以傳信。而朴汝厚泰淳。尹廣州也。刊行許筠所纂國朝詩刪。其中酒泉縣七律。乃申企齋光漢詩。而係於奇服齋遵。蓋詩刪元本。服齋詩。次在企齋之上。想汝厚誤錄企齋名於其第二作。故此詩自爾上係服齋之作矣。企齋此詩。旣昭載於本集。且釘板於縣壁。而其謬如此。且七絕中。題僧軸詩。疎雲山口草萋萋。夜逐香烟到水西。醉後高歌答明月。江花落盡子規啼之詩。首係於權石洲。而考之石洲集中。而無有。余家有詩刪舊本。此乃李嶸詩。而次在石洲之上。此亦汝。厚誤漏李嶸名。故通係於石洲。疎率甚矣。且其所稱栗谷初出山詩。乃許筠贋作。自註曰。本集不載。似為三四諱之。其意不難知。而汝厚刊正。而不刪此詩。兼錄其註。到有訾謗。自朝家竟命毀板。纂書者宜戒之
All compilers of books must engage in a careful textual study. Only when there are no loose ends, should they make their works public. Magistrate of Kwangju, Pak T’aesun 朴泰淳 (1653–1704; styled Yŏhu), printed Hŏ Kyun’s compilation Kukcho sisan (Poems Culled from Our Country). In it, Sin Kwanghan’s seven-character regulated verse “Chuch’ŏn County” 酒泉縣 is attributed to Ki Chun. But in the original anthology, Ki’s poem precedes Sin’s poem. I think since Pak inaccurately added Sin’s name to his second poem, and this poem as a result was combined with earlier poems by Ki. The poem was already recorded in Sin’s own anthology and was made into a plaque and hung on a wall in his county. Such was the extent of Pak’s error. Moreover, Pak attributes the following seven-character quatrain, “A Poem on a Monk’s Scroll” 題僧軸, to Kwŏn P’il. 疏雲山口草萋萋夜逐香煙到水西醉後高歌答明月江花落盡子規啼 Clouds scatter about the mouth of the mountain.Plants are full and green.When the night comes, incense smoke reaches the west side of the river.Then utterly drunk, I sing out loudand rejoin the bright moon.River flowers have all fallen.The cuckoos cry. But according to the old version of Kwŏn’s Sŏkchu chip 石洲集 (Collected Works of Sŏkchu), the poem in fact is by Yi Yŏng 李嶸 (1560–1582). Since the poem followed Kwŏn’s poems in the anthology, and Pak again mistakenly left out Yi’s name, the poem was tied in together with other poems by Kwŏn. Pak did a truly careless job. Moreover, what he identified as Yi I’s poem “Stepping Out of the Mountain for the First Time” 初出山 is in fact a fake poem by Hŏ Kyun. Pak’s annotation said, “The poem is not included in Yi’s anthology because it appears to be in error on many levels, which is not difficult to understand.” Yet in his publication, Pak did not delete this poem and included this annotation as well. He was severely criticized for this, and the court eventually ordered the destruction of his book. All compilers of books should take warning.
