Biography
姚希孟，吴县人。
明史卷二百十六 列传第一百四：
姚希孟，字孟长，吴县人。生十月而孤，母文氏励志鞠之。稍长，与舅文震孟同学，并负时名。举万历四十七年进士，改庶吉士。座主韩爌、馆师刘一□器之。两人并执政，遇大事多所咨决。天启初，震孟亦取上第，入翰林，甥舅并持清议，望益重。寻请假归。四年冬还朝，赵南星、高攀龙等悉去位，党祸大作，希孟郁郁不得志。其明年，以母丧归。甫出都，给事中杨所修劾其为缪昌期死党，遂削籍。魏忠贤败，其党倪文焕惧诛，使使持厚贿求解，希孟执而鸣之官。崇祯元年，起左赞善。历右庶子，为日讲官。三年秋，与谕德姚明恭主顺天乡试。有武生二人冒籍中式，给事中王猷论之，遂获谴。希孟雅为东林所推。韩爌等定逆案，参其议。群小恶希孟，谋先之。及华允诚劾温体仁、闵洪学，两人疑疏出希孟手，体仁遂借冒籍事修隙，拟旨覆试，黜两生下所司，论考官罪，拟停俸半年。体仁意未慊，令再拟。希孟时已迁詹事，乃贬二秩为少詹事，掌南京翰林院。寻移疾归，家居二年，卒。
