宋葛長庚撰。長庚字白叟，閩清人。為道士，居武夷山。舊本題紫清真人白玉蟾。白玉蟾其別號，紫清真人則嘉定間徵赴闕下所封也。其書隨文標識，不訓詁字句，亦不旁為推闡，所注乃少於本經，語意多近於禪偈，蓋佛、老同源故也。此本為元趙孟頫手書，鈎摹雕版，字畫絕為精楷。明陳繼儒亦嘗刻之《匯秘笈》中，改題曰《蟾仙解老》，非其本目。又前有萬曆癸未適園居士跋二則，其前一則稱董《藏書志》述張道相集古今注《老子》四十餘家，不載是編。案晁氏《讀書志》，張道相乃唐天寶後人，安能以南宋寧宗時書著之於錄？且道相所集凡二十九家，並其自注為三十家，亦無所謂四十餘家者。跋所云云，殆於道聽途說矣。長庚世傳其神仙，而《劉克莊集》有王隱居《六學九書》序，稱所見丹家四人，鄒子益不登七十，曾景建、黃天谷僅六十，白玉蟾夭死。又陳振孫《書錄解題·群仙珠玉集》條下云，白玉蟾葛其姓，福之閩清人，嘗得罪亡命，蓋奸妄流也。余宰南城，有寓公稱其人云，近嘗過此，曾相識否？余言此輩何可使及吾門云云。二人與長庚同時，其說當確，流俗所傳，殆出附會。然道家自尊其教，往往如此。其書既頗有可取，則其人亦不足深詰矣。
