Biography
刘苞，彭城人。
梁书卷四十九 列传第四十三 文学上：
刘苞，字孝尝，彭城人也。祖勔，宋司空。父愃，齐太子中庶子。苞四岁而父终，及年六七岁，见诸父常泣。时伯、叔父悛、绘等并显贵，苞母谓其畏惮，怒之。苞对曰："早孤不及有识，闻诸父多相似，故心中欲悲，无有佗意。"因而歔欷，母亦恸甚。初，苞父母及两兄相继亡没，悉假瘗焉。苞年十六，始移墓所，经营改葬，不资诸父，未几皆毕，绘常叹服之。
少好学，能属文。起家为司徒法曹行参军，不就。天监初，以临川王妃弟故，自征虏主簿仍迁王中军功曹，累迁尚书库部侍郎、丹阳尹丞、太子太傅丞、尚书殿中侍郎、南徐州治中，以公事免。久之，为太子洗马，掌书记，侍讲寿光殿。自高祖即位，引后进文学之士，苞及从兄孝绰、从弟孺、同郡到溉、溉弟洽、从弟沆、吴郡陆倕、张率并以文藻见知，多预宴坐，虽仕进有前后，其赏赐不殊。天监十年，卒，时年三十。临终，呼友人南阳刘之遴托以丧事，务从俭率。苞居官有能名，性和而直，与人交，面折其非，退称其美，情无所隐，士友咸以此叹惜之。
