Biography
王忱。
晋书卷七十五 列传第四十五：
忱字元达。弱冠知名，与王恭、王珣俱流誉一时。历位骠骑长史。尝造其舅范宁，与张玄相遇，宁使与玄语。玄正坐敛衽，待其有发，忱竟不与言，玄失望便去。宁让忱曰："张玄，吴中之秀，何不与语？"忱笑曰："张祖希欲相识，自可见诣。"宁谓曰："卿风流隽望，真后来之秀。"忱曰："不有此舅，焉有此甥！"既而宁使报玄，玄束带造之，始为宾主。
太元中，出为荆州刺史、都督荆益宁三州军事、建武将军、假节。忱自恃才气，放酒诞节，慕王澄之为人，又年少居方伯之任，谈者忧之。及镇荆州，威风肃然，殊得物和。桓玄时在江陵，既其本国。且奕叶故义，常以才雄驾物。忱每裁抑之。玄尝诣忱，通人未出，乘轝直进。忱对玄鞭门干，玄怒，去之，忱亦不留。尝朔日见客，仗卫甚盛，玄言欲猎，借数百人，忱悉给之。玄惮而服焉。
性任达不拘，末年尤嗜酒，一饮连月不醒，或裸体而游，每欢三日不叹，便觉形神不相亲。妇父尝有惨，忱乘醉吊之，妇父恸哭，忱与宾客十许人，连臂被发裸身而入，绕之三币百而出。其所行多此类。数年卒官，追赠右将军，谥曰穆。
