Biography
王延。
晋书卷八十八 列传第五十八：
王延，字延元。西河人也。九岁丧母，泣血三年，几至灭性。每至忌日，则悲啼至旬。继母卜氏遇之无道，恒以薄穰及败麻头与延贮衣。其姑闻而问之，延知而不言，事母弥谨。卜氏尝盛冬思生鱼，敕延求而不获，杖之流血。延寻汾叩凌而哭，忽有一鱼长五尺，踊出水上，延取以进母。卜氏食之，积日不尽，于是心悟，抚延如己生。延事亲色养，夏则扇枕席，冬则以身温被，隆立盛寒，体无全衣，而亲极滋味。昼则佣赁，夜则诵书，遂究览经史，皆通大义。州郡礼辟，贪供养不起。父母终后，庐于墓侧，非其蚕不衣，非其耕不食。属天下丧乱，随刘元海迁于平阳，农蚕之暇，训诱宗族，侃侃不倦。家牛一生犊，他人认之，延牵而授与，初无吝色。其人后自知妄认，送犊还延，叩头谢罪，延仍以与之，不复取也。年六十，方仕于刘聪，稍迁尚书左丞，至金紫光禄大夫。聪死后，靳准将作乱，谋之于延，延不从。准既诛刘氏，自号汉天王，以延为左光禄大夫，延又大骂不受，准遂杀之。
