我在癸巳年秋天，得到了桐乡陆定圃先生的《冷庐杂识》书板，已经修补了其残损部分，校正后刊行于世了。先生精通医学，书中采录的岐黄家（中医）言论，确实不少，我私下认为先生在医学上必定有独到的心得，于是又购买寻求先生的遗著，在乙未年春天，得到了《再续名医类案》若干卷，随后又得到《冷庐医话》若干卷，都是手抄本，尚未刻印出版。《医案》采集丰富，足以补充江瓘、魏之琇二书所未完备之处；《医话》则专门以辨证为主，凡是叙述一个证候，必定推究其虚实的根源和来龙去脉，并指出医家的利弊，言语大多精当确凿。自序中说只是拾取听闻见闻，用来表达自己想要表达的意思罢了。唉！这哪里是容易说出来的呢！我认为《医话》对世人尤其有益，急忙交付给刻工，刻印成书，仿照古香斋袖珍本的样式，以便于携带翻阅。闲暇时打算再校正《医案》，继续刊行于世。
时光绪二十三年太岁在强圉作噩季冬之月，乌程庞元 为之刊行。
陆定圃，是桐乡的积学之士，兼擅医术，见识超人，凡是研究学问，必定穷尽事理探究深奥之处，务必通达其主旨，于是随手记录，分门别类，编成《冷庐医话》五卷。光绪二十三年，乌程庞元 为之刊行，早已脍炙人口。先生在咸丰五年时，曾撰写《冷庐杂识》八卷，其中采录岐黄家（中医）的言论，确实不少，都是心得实录，精当确凿值得珍视，于是另外分类摘选辑录，偶尔加上附注加以阐明，命名为《冷庐医话补编》，附刻在后面，使内容更加完美完备。近期编纂《中国医学大成》，将正编和补编全书整理，列入医话丛刊，以广泛传播，这对于我们的医道尤其不无小补。丙子三月炳章志。
In the autumn of the Gui-Si year, I obtained the woodblocks for Mr. Lu Dingpu's (Lu Tingzhi) *Lenglu Zashi* from Tongxiang. Having repaired the damaged parts and corrected them, I published it for the world. Mr. Lu was proficient in medicine, and the text contained a considerable amount of knowledge from the Qi-Huang school (Traditional Chinese Medicine). Suspecting that he must have had unique insights into medicine, I sought out his remaining works. In the spring of the Yi-Wei year, I obtained several volumes of *Zaixu Mingyi Leian* (Continued Cases of Famous Physicians), followed by several volumes of *Lenglu Yihua* (Medical Conversations from Lenglu). These were all handwritten manuscripts not yet printed. The *Yi'an* (Cases) is richly collected, sufficient to supplement what Jiang Gao and Wei Zhixiu's works lacked; the *Yihua* focuses specifically on *Bianzheng* (Syndrome Differentiation). Whenever describing a syndrome, it invariably traces the root causes of deficiency and excess, pointing out the pros and cons of physicians' practices. The language is precise and accurate. His preface states that he merely gathered hearsay and observations to express his own thoughts. Alas! Is this easy to say? Believing that the *Yihua* is particularly beneficial to the world, I hurriedly entrusted it to the carvers to be printed on pear and jujube wood, modeled after the pocket-sized editions of Guxiang Studio, for ease of carrying and consulting. On leisure days, I plan to further correct the *Yi'an* and publish it subsequently.
Written in the late winter month of the year Qiangyu-Zuo'e (Guangxu 23rd Year), Pang Yuan of Wucheng.
Lu Dingpu, a scholar of accumulated learning from Tongxiang, excelled in both scholarship and medicine, possessing extraordinary insight. Whenever studying knowledge, he would exhaustively investigate principles to grasp their profound essence, recording notes spontaneously and categorizing them into five volumes titled *Lenglu Yihua*. In the 23rd year of Guangxu, Pang Yuan of Wucheng published it, and it has long been widely praised. In the 5th year of Xianfeng, Mr. Lu had previously written *Lenglu Zashi*, eight volumes, which included a substantial amount of medical knowledge. These were all records of personal insights, precise and valuable. Therefore, they were separately classified and excerpted, with occasional annotations added for clarification, named *Lenglu Yihua Bubian* (Supplement to Medical Conversations from Lenglu), and appended to the end to make the work more complete. Recently, while compiling the *Zhongguo Yixue Dacheng* (Great Compendium of Chinese Medicine), the entire main and supplementary texts were organized and included in the series of medical conversations to facilitate wider dissemination, offering a minor but meaningful contribution to our medical tradition. Recorded by Bingzhang in the third month of the Bing-Zi year.
