正堂士顯雅號偈 獨孤淳朋
日本
元代（1271～1368）僧獨孤淳朋七十三歲時所書。該卷之作，乃因正堂士顯以其雅號「正堂」求取獨孤贈言，獨孤便書偈成卷，以「正堂」字義相勉云：「門當戶對出天然，離坎交宮更不偏。」
此卷用筆無強烈的頓挫起伏，亦未見明顯的書學來源，雖然品質未臻上等，但顯示了書寫的自在態度。此外，獨孤即獨孤本《定武蘭亭》的擁有者，趙孟頫北行，獨孤送與趙氏，遂有趙孟頫《蘭亭十三跋》這一千古名作。這是書法史上的佳話，增添了此作的歷史趣味與價值。
獨孤淳朋俗姓楊，法名淳朋，字獨孤，號普覺，又稱靈隱獨孤。臨海（今浙江臨海）人。徑山（今浙江餘杭）虎巖凈伏禪師法嗣。
參考釋文：顯侍者孜孜在道雅號／正堂可見其操心之正也／索語為證故說偈以曉之／門當戶對出天然離坎交／宮更不偏大坐分明宣號／令從教佛祖聽談玄／至順辛未孟秋之初書／靈隱獨孤叟 淳朋
