Dear teachers,
I have a question about it is said and it was said,
It is said that the lady is wealthy.
= The lady is said to be wealthy.
If I change "It is" into "It was", then could I use was wealthy or is wealthy? And to be or to have been?(with the beginning of "The lady")
It was said that the lady was (or is?) wealthy.
= The lady was said to be (or to have been?) wealthy.
Thanks.
