酆都縣外有洞，深不可測，相傳閻羅署。其中一切獄具，皆借人工。桎梏朽敗，輒擲洞口，邑宰即以新者易之，經宿失所在。供應度支，載之經制。

Outside Fengdu county there is a cave too deep to measure, said by tradition to be the court of Yama. All the instruments of punishment inside it are made by human hands. When the fetters and manacles rot and break, they are thrown out at the mouth of the cave, and the county magistrate replaces them with new ones, which are gone by the next morning. The cost of supplying them is entered among the county’s fixed expenses.
